I just got my 90 gallon off of craigslist for 107 (was 115 but 107 was all I had in my wallet so I got it *yeay*). It came with a stand (although not the best one) also, so it was worth 107. Either way, I'm excited! Feel free to give me your opinions, suggestions, questions etc...
So here are some of my thoughts and concerns:
Cost: I don't want to spend any more than $120 (not including the aquarium)
Heater(s): 2 cheap 150 watt heaters or 1 stealth 250 watt heater
Filter: There are a couple I'm thinking about... They include: Magnum 350, ebay item 350238858220, and ebay item 310152464119.
Resealing: I don't know if I should reseal the silicone on the inside of the tank as they look small... also, would it be 100% silicone or something else?

Here are some pics:
This is the stand...
...and this is the tank...
... and the room it's going in...
So, as you can see, I've got some work ahead of me, but I am so pumped!!!
As for stocking, I'm pretty sure its going to go something like this:
Green Terror
Firemouth
Jack Dempsy
Ghost Knife
Fire Eel
Banded Leporinus
Paratilapia polleni
Jaguar catfish
(plus or minus some)

That's about it so far, I will keep you all updated...
