Re: new tank
Thats a lot of rock.
Are those halide lights?If they are,be extremely careful not to let any water splash on the bulbs.Or you'll have a tank full of glass.

Re: new tank
I use two $7 clip-on fans from Walmart to blow across the surface of the water. I think they might help you with your tank too.
