I want to design a tank 200,000+ gallons live stock rock sand everything, every detail for a hypothetical self contained tank. I have an idea on the shell il do the specifics on and get it mapped and everything. I figure this can be our little community project for awhile so of course designs ideas etc are accepted from everyone. I think itd be a lot better if we all come up with multiple designs for everything and pick whichever ...

So I have a couple questions after all my research: Whats the "average" lighting for a SW tank? Right now I can only swing some 5000K CFL's, Would/could that work for some LR and maybe a button polyp/taro tree? How advisable is a Yellow Tail Damsel and a CUC for this tank? Should I just go with LR/corals(?) only? I grasp the principles of it all. Just cant ...

While the temperature gets to 85 or even more during the summer, and the reefs include butterflies, surgeonfish and angels, in the winter most of the reef fish disappear as the temperature gets down to 45-50 degrees!
