Thanks to Marvin I gotta have a Clownfish/BTA tank. 
Made a stop at Petco for the $1/Gallon sale. I picked up a 40 breeder and a 20 long to use as a sump. I also bought a 20 tall that I may end up using instead but I think it will end up being my QT since I gave my 20 tall to my Grandpa. I have most of the equipment for this already but I'm in no rush and would like to do it right. I'm ordering a glass-holes.com kit and will be drilling it myself. I already have a couple of BTAs in my prop tank also. I'll likely end up breaking down the prop tank when this build is done so I don't have so many tanks to maintain. I plan on getting a nice pair of clownfish to be the main attraction and will probably add a few nice damsels to add some color variety to the tank. I'm a big fan of yellow tail/azure damsels so I'd like to have a few in this tank also.
EDIT: Current full tank shot December 2013

Equipment so far
40 gallon breeder
20 gallon long sump/fuge
glass-holes 1500 gph overflow kit. I know this is overkill but I'm thinking it will be the majority of the flow in the tank and will keep wandering nems out of powerhead.
120w Evolution leds
Sealife Skimmer I modified and am using on my frag tank. I will likely replace this later down the road depending on how well it works.
Livestock
Sherman Rose BTA
Green/yellow/red BTA


That's all I got for now but I'm going to start building soon hopefully.
Any suggestions, comments, ideas, flames are welcomed. :xd:
