That is indeed a nice tank. But just some friendly advise, TIFWIW, unless you start injecting c02, preferably pressurized c02 and start dosing ferts, you could be in for some major algae outbreaks.

I would seriously consider reducing lighting to two 10 watt 6500K compact fluorescent bulbs if you don't want the hassle of injecting c02 ,want to make this a "true" low tech tank, and avoid long term algae issues.
