Thanks for all the nice comments!
Ciro - filtering right now is just whatever I put in the fuge (sand, LR, chaeto, and Purigen ATM) and is powered by the current from the flow of the powerhead. Looking down on the top of the tank you can watch the water go in a clockwise motion from the power head on the right, to the overflow on the left and around. However, I have a spare Azoo Palm (tiny) HOB filter that I'll probably throw on there for Purigen/Carbon just to increase the flow through the media. As for the layout a lot of people have asked me, so I'm going to put together some diagrams or something when I find time and will post it here. Personally I just bought a 5.5 gallon tank and winged it from there (I had everything planned out in my head how I wanted it) just taking the measurements and fabricating as I went.
jmac - it probably won't be long until you do get to see it because the itch is getting stronger each day as I spend more money on corals and want to keep them at their full potential!
Anyone have any input on minimum height I should put a 70W MH above a 5.5gal?
