Okay, all posts under my name were entered by my wife at my request via cell phone while I was looking at the tank. I went ahead and bought the "Clarity Plus" acrylic 300 gallon monster tank for only $700!!! Now I need to close the holes. I think I am going to go with shut off valves. I would like to eventually set it up like it was meant to be, I mean it is a gorgeous reef tank. It was a display model for a fish store before the electrician got it for a killer deal, then he never set it up. That guy ended up owing his roommate a ton of money and when he moved out, got permission from his roommate to sell it. His loss, my gain. I did damage the hood during the move. It was so way past my bedtime, and I forgot to secure the doors, so one snapped off during transit. The lid has like 4 Heliax(?) lighting fixtures, accent lighting, and florescent. Will post pics eventually. Thanks for everyone's input.
