Dennison got back to me with a price for the new tank today and it's all go.
It will be 100w x 50d x 45h with 12mm PPG Starphire (the super duper clear stuff) on front and sides, rimless, polished beveled edges, holes drilled and black vinyl applied to back. 3 - 4 weeks delivery.
Should be the duck's guts. :)

Can you go 60d ?

Easier to scape mate .

I would go 48H
Just my 10cents

Sorry to add another .,,
What lighting are you using to cover 100L???

 

[daveH]

I'm happy with that size. With the ghost overflow the floor of the tank won't have any equipment taking up space.

The Maxspect Razor 160 with the 120deg lens upgrade.

I have the same light on a 100cm tank. I reckon that with this light you would not want the tank to be any wider than 50cm. I also think that the light is better suited to a tank no longer than 90cm, if not 80cm. So, I would be leaving some floor space bare at each end of your tank.

I also have the wider lenses, but just two: One at each end, leaving the central lights with the original lense.

He's such a great guy to deal with.

Just a small 600x600x400 tank. Was going to buy an Aqua medic blenny, but I've decided to go custom. Still awaiting his reply but by all accounts I've heard he is a jet!
