I guess it all depends on the amount of space. My 2cents, this set up needs to have its own filtration, such as a 20 or 30 gal sump with a fuge. A skimmer, a heater and lights. I'm guessing a 30-40 gal display would be pretty easy. Lighting could be fairly simple, depending on the tank size, Pc's or some t-5s will be plenty. The skimmer can be a simple and inexpensive kind, but needs to be consistent. A 100watt heater will perfect, as the temp will need to stay in the low 70's. I was also thinking we could do the background with the pond foam to create some nice caves and ledges for things like Ric's, shrooms, kenya tree's....things that don't sting. As far as water movement, the return pump would most likely be enough, but depending on the tank size we may want to add 1 power head (maxijet -400). The maxi mods would not be a good choice, due to the openings, a SH my get his tail inside and that would not be pretty 
Anyway I guess we can discuss this more on Saturday..........

P.S......40 gal tank could hold six adult SH with no problems.
One last thing, a cube tank would be my personal choice for a display, you could pile live rock up high and allow macro's to grow with occasional pruning.
