    There are several of us on here that build them, real nice too.

    I'm in Austin and I build them....Pete is in SA and he builds them, Reefone is in Copus I think and he builds nice ones.
    If life is like a box of chocolates, then someone sat on mine!

    The footprint I'm interested in is 6'x2'x18" high. I'm willing to adjust the size to save money due to using less acrylic or outside of certain sheet size. I'm really set on 2ft front to back and around 18-20" tall.

    I absolutely love the 125W they have, the exact dimensions I want but I don't like the black corners on the acrylic tanks. From everything I have seen and prices glasscages seems like the best I guess.
