I'm conisdering getting a 55cm x 55cm x 55cm cube tank and using MH lighting which would be at about 150w.
This is the aquamedic chromis tank, which is really intended for marine, but I have been thinking about selling the skimmer included and changing the mh bulb, do you think this would be ok? I'm basically going off one of Amano's cube tanks in NAW2 which seems to use a similar 150w setup, on page 71.
Here is the lowdown on the chromis tank....

I already have a CO2 system so that would be ok, and I'd have to get a external filter or maybe internal but that would be about it. What do you guys think? It's a lot of money to spend and I would have to mess about selling parts of the tank on ebay etc, but I think it would look pretty cool. My worry is it may turn into a very expensive algae contrainer though......
