I'm looking forward to this, and I will be starting a build thread for a 185 I'm setting up. I plan on going with a combination of t5's and led's, though. If my tank was going to be 10' long and 30" high, I would definitely going with mh's and leds for supplementation. I've had plenty of success w/ both mh's and t5's over the years, but the pop in color that leds give is unbeatable and I wouldn't be able to leave them out. That being said, I'm not fully sold on them as my only source of light, so why not do both. Ideally, I would use mh, t5, and leds. I would only keep the mh's on for around 3 hours each, staggered, so that each mh turns on about an hour after the previous mh so that you get more of a sunrise/sunset effect. That makes me think...I have a couple of 250watt setups laying around, why not.....
Anyway, I'm really looking foward to this build. How deep (front to back) will the tank be? Sounds like it's going to be a sight to behold.
