What do you plan on keeping? I would go with a 250W MH instead of a 150W. The 150W might not be strong enough to penetrate the bottom of the tank.

 

im not a pro on these deeper tanks, but if you do go that route, and want to sell that 150mh........ ;) im your man, lookin to add a 150w mh to an 80w pc for my 29 long

 

otherwise it looks very nice, im glad ot hear youre using the mag5, i was wondering how much power those are but if its good enough for a 45g's return, than i guess 29g is fine

 

good luck with it:)
