CCP's 2000 gallon Deltec reef tank

Remember your first Imperial Star Destroyer flyby?
That's how large this tank is.

"The tank will be 15foot x 5.5 foot x 35.4 inches. | 500cm x 170cm x 0.90cm and will be viewable from all sides".

Been working on these coral propagation tanks. The corals in the main tank are growing really big so I thought it would be ideal to cut some into frags to grow in the maintenance room.

Sorry for sub-par picture quality but these were shot with my phone. Better pictures soon as this goes further :)

It's all plastic but has a metal ring on the other side which I'm going to remove before I permanently attach it to the tank.
 
2x Coral propagation tanks filled and hooked up to the main sump. Yay!

400 watt, 20K Radium bulb on the wall above. Going to get a better reflector for them soon but I had this single old one at hand so I'm going to start with that ;)

Never done specific propagation tanks before so I would love to hear suggestions on best layout/structure. I've seen some types of Frag plug Trees but not heard much about them.

I'll be adding new photos of tank very soon as well.

I'm basically wondering whether to simply put sand in the bottom and stick plastic tubes or build a few level egg crate structure.
