Its just the fact that in 6 months there will be a new LED with twice the light or something thats holding me back, that and now that there is two LED companies the prices will start coming down due to competition.
Well I placed my order yesterday for my ATI BM-250 and a tradewind 1/2hp chiller. I will be making my savko order at lunch today which should be fun.

djay, its euro braced so 1/2 isn't a problem, if it was rimless it would deff. be 3/4
stdreb, just because it doesn't get cheaper doesn't mean its less painful to drop the cash. I just don't think its got enough juice, if I did I wouldn't have ordered the chiller.
I will have to travel international occasionally but not for significant amounts of time. I have people who can watch my tank here in town.

Good call, shows how much I am out of it today, I called and talked with one of the guys at Trade Wind and he convinced me that 1/2HP would be just fine. I really don't mind saving the $250 difference between the two of them anyways. I almost went with a 2 HP cause premium aquatics has them listed as 3 dollars.

Well the tank was supose to be finished this week so I could pick it up sat. , but they are running behind schedule because of some big acrylic tank they are building. I have been told that they have all of the materials and that they are going to start building the tank today. So we will see.
I ordered the skimmer, chiller, pump, and bulkheads already which should be in shortly. I am waiting for a quote from Trigger systems on how much it would be to build my sump. If it's to much I am going to make the sump this weekend while I wait on the tank.

Well I finally have some real pictures to contribute to the thread. Below is the stand, and base of the tank being routered out.
I am scheduled to pick the tank up from the shop in Dallas next Sat. I am currently working on getting the details hashed out with AquaDave's to have Trigger Systems build my sump. I have a few design changes that I want incorporated into the sump. Sounds like they do fast work so I should have it by the end of the week when I go pick up the tank.
