    Also tagged along since I also have a 55 gallon reef and trying to get new ideas. Nice build, did you ever figure out your sump/refu set up?

    Looks like a great build. Nice work on the stand.

    How do you people with these canopy-less tanks handle the bleed out from your lights? I made a cover for the front of my t5 fixture when I had that setup....just hurt my eyes to much.

    PS, what kind of damsels are you gonna sport?

    Your fixture must have more countersunk bulbs then mine did. Are you saying you are putting clowns only or other Damsels too?
