Awesome! I guess there isn't really a way to force the hybrid to become male? Possibly two smaller females, I'm not sure though. Good luck either way.

I cant wait to see this build!

You asked about laminate underneath the tank. The wear layer of laminate is melamine (plastic) and is very water resistant, but the inner core is still a wood product (essentially fiber board) and water can damage it. Personally I would not recommend laminate under an aquarium. If you want hardwood I would go with that. But take into consideration that water will be spilled and you will get a lot of traffic on this area, and consider appropriate hardwood choices.
I would not put a solid hardwood down as moisture and solid hardwood do not mix well, and you will end up with cupped boards and check marks. There are many nice Engineered Hardwood choices that would hold up very well and are much more resilient to moisture than solid hardwood. Also, many of the new engineered hardwoods are very low maintenance.

+1 we have engineered wood that looks just like the real thing and the dogs also dont scratch it.

Curious Ted, with that size tank and triggers that you say will scratch it, why go acrylic as opposed to something like starphire glass?

weight and clarity....I had a feeding port built-in to the tank which keeps the fish off/away from the acrylic...
