Looking great! Have you made any modifications or changed things from how the tank comes standard (besides the bulb upgrade)?

How does your skimmer work for you? I've made some modifications and settings that seem to improve skimming if you're interested. I've not posted them in my build thread yet, but would be happy to share them with you here.

I wouldn't do that. I find that in the summer I have to run those extra cooling fans.
