    How have I missed this thread? Talk a bout a tank build; This dude has a room build before the tank build!! FWIW I'm just throwin it out there.. I have a 300DD with a 90-100gal DIY SUMP directly under my tank and almost dead silent. Only random noise these days is an occasional bubble/foaming noise from the skimmer. TV on can't even tell and my couch is 3' from the tank.

    was going for a 4 foot 120 gallon but i always wanted a 6 foot 125 gallon. i knew the extra 2 foot would be a tight fit and may look to crowded. this is where i would like to have it and think i can move the tv down some. i am still waiting for the couch before i make any final decisions.
