Anybody on here have a 4 foot cube? if so, could you list your equipment/build or link your thread? Thanks, looking for suggestions on how to piece it all together.

A LFS has one similar to this for a coral tank. It's a custom tank with a island sump in the middle and rock piles up covering it on all sides. All plumbing goes into/out of this island.

I don't have a picture on hand, but it's a pretty clever design.

Thanks Corey, for flow I am considering a gyre. What do most suggest for inexpensive (but good) lighting. I was thinking 4 black boxes one 250W halide with a luminarc or something else that is inexpensive.

I will be running an ats for the filter, had one on my last tank and loved it.

KMU's 48x48x24 build

KMU was/is my inspiration. That tank is awesome!
I use the rapidled pucks for lighting. I have 4 of them, they are set up similar to the radion led. I also use MP40's on the tank. Mostly because it's open top and I wanted no wires on the top of the tank.

4 MarsAqua 300watters would be plenty of light and cheap.
