Nice! I have the same system.

What is your plan for corals?
Mine will be 90% acros.
Whats your equipment list look like?
Also per inside dims its only a 135g display.

I will also be doing 90% Acro's. As for equipment I currently have two gyre 350's and a Mighty XL return pump. As for lights, I haven't decided on T5/ led hybrid or full led.

Yea so many options!
I was going to do 5 xr15's in an aquaitc life hybrid but decided to go full led. Xr15's will be on my frag system.
I went with 2 RB 50's. At current settings im getting 350-400 par on the bottom.
Looking to get 300 on the bottom and 400+ half way up.
Should have no shadowing.
Also running 2 sea sweeps with Tunze 6255's. I did not want any powerheads on the glass or back.
Also only 2 cords in the tank that run through the sweeps.

Great light choice! I used to RB's over an 80g a few years ago that grew acros like weeds. Great color too.
