It's just an oversize vortec. 
Yup, it's a custom acrylic tank built by Advance Acrylic in SoCal.
Dimensions of the tank is 24x10x10 with an external overflow. It's plumbed back to the same sump as I had before; I just moved some stuff around. The mag rack and the sump frags are in the main tank for now until I get water running through the sump. Bottom is just a white piece of sterlite (sp?) with some silicone playsand that I had around. The two suction cup containers on the upper left is housing maxi mini 'nems.
Rest of the equipment just came from the other tank:
pci 1/10 chiller powered by eheim 1060
vortec
2x150W Ocean light running 12k reeflux
tunze 9002 skimmer power by eheim 1250

Hmm, it says that it can't be synced w/other wireless pumps. I'm bummed that they didn't make them smaller. I would totally nab a couple if it was like 1/2 the size and create some littles waves. I turned the vortec up, but the frags wouldn't stay down. I'm still running the vortec on reef crest mode at about 40%. Any more than that and the frags get thrown around.
I'll post it on the other forum soon, Sam.
10G w/the 2x150W looks good. I've only been running one of them at a time so far since my plumbing is still waiting for a leak test (later today).
Started playing around with pulse mode after seeing the waves in Art's tank. It's kind of interesting, but I've got a tiny 1" wave going in the tank at the moment. ;D
