Were you thinking of plumbing the 29 into the same system or will it be separate?

If you're going with MH right from the start and you're going to get a skimmer you might not want to shell out the bucks for the BC29, since a good portion of the price is for the integrated lighting/filter system. A normal tank that's 24", 36", or 48" wide (the common widths) will give you a lot more options for lighting systems and other equipment than a custom or odd size tank will. Many decent hang-on-tank style skimmers simply don't fit the various nano-cube products (or you have to Dremel the hood you just paid good money for just to fit the skimmer inside).
