Default new tank!!!

Well she finally said yes!!!!! My wife OKed the new tank. I ordered a brand
new 125g tank, stand, glass top, and 2 twin bulb light strips, will be ready
for pick up on SAT. Anyone want to help my carry it???? So this weekend I
moved my 90g to where I had a 29g and put the 29g in a new spot that I'm not
sure is getting wife approval, time will tell.
I,m planning to use black substrate with rocks and slate for caves, maybe a
few fake plants, and a background that fades from black bottom to a dark
blue top. I have my 20g tank set up like this (minus the plants), and it
looks awesome with the lights on. This is the current home of 2 Frontys, 2
very small Calvus, and a small Highfinned (sold as) plec, imagine there
delight when moved from a 20 to a 125. I plan on adding another Fronty and
another Calvus and (if I can locate) a couple of compessiceps (spelling?)
Set up will be filtered with a currently running sump (no need to cycle ),
and an AquaClear 110 or 500, (what ever they're calling it this month), and
a couple of powerheads with sponges, and heated with 2 300 watt heaters (I
live in southern FL so heating is not a major problem). Thank to advise from
people like NetMax, I run multiple filters on most of my tank, so starting a
new tank is easy.
I will try to get some in progress pics up soon.
Thought, comment and suggestions always welcome, and sometimes needed.
