Lookin great, I too am jealous about your Pil socks.

buds well done I did notice that you has white caulking in the sump. I hope that isnt the anti fungi ones

all looks good. but why didnt you stain the inside of the doors?

Very nice tank but your crocea clam is not going to be happy directly in the sand like that. I hope it's not already attach to the bottom. They have delicate filtering system and do dably in the sand, they prefer to be on a rock, in something clean and close tot he light.

You did a great job documenting the whole build, thanks for sharing! I really like that you are quarantining all new arrivals. Why do you treat all incoming fish with Cupramine though? How long are you treating for and how long are you quarantining for? Be careful with copper as many fish are very sensitive, like Angelfish and Butterflyfish (although apparently your Angel made it through).

Looks great, i like the planter boxes on the sides, frames the tank in nice. You should see if you can get mangroves growing in there!
