I have mostly sps and some lps and mushrooms. I built the stand and light canopy myself and designed the tank. I have a DIY 30gal sump.

Ok, never mind... I haven’t sealed it yet. As I said I am going to use Kilz.
Do you see any problems with that? Or do you have any recommendations?

I'll see if I can find some. I had to go back to victoria to do most of the construction and I'm not very good at remembering ti bring my camera.
