Looking for big tank (180+), and equipment! I need your help

[bkvreef]

Here's the deal.  I am interested in getting back in to the hobby after several years out.  However, I am looking at a big tank, and have been looking on Craigslist for awhile.
My big deal is all the additional equipment I need.

If anyone has any ideas or places to search please let me know.
I have a good offer from a fellow member on here but I wanted to make sure I looked around.

On a side note I get so frustrated when I call someone about a tank and the person says: "well, I have a dori, a nemo, bubbles, and a shrimp/lobster thing."

do you look around on RC ? are you wanting all equipment to be under tank ? or will you have basement sump or a room equip will be in ? i know you are thinking LED's. there is alot of good talk on RC of some off brands. skimmer's will depend on water volume an were it is located. meaning internal or external.

All would be under sump.  Probably leaning toward t-5's.  Have looked at l.e.d's but so much uncertainty, and I don't want to spend $500 per fixture.
Ive gone through an entire list of items that I will need.  So basically now it is up to seeing what I can afford (if I can find the good deals out there, and it starts with deciding what tank (even though it is not the highest priced item).  Isn't that ironic

 size of tank will determine size of alot of your equipment. if buying a tank an stand combo i would say get a taller than normal stand. 34ish inches tall. will give you alot more room. plus you don't have to bend over to look in tank.

John, did you get a new tank?

I know it's not a 180g tank, but a 150 bow is nice as well.
