Looks like a great start! You might learn to dislike the 30" depth though once you realize you have to use tongs to do anything.

I'm looking forward to seeing the finished renovations though. It looks like a nice tank - Aqueon/AGA mega flow? I like the trim on it. Although I imagine you're going to cover up all the trim with your renovation...?
Fwiw, your tank is 72 x 24 x 30" (not the other way around). Length x width x height.
