Default 404 gallon - round 2.5

I am in the process of a "do-over" on my 400 gallon display so I thought I'd start a "build thread" so to speak.
Here is a picture of the tank with a couple of hundred pounds of rock already out. (yes it is a big mess but who cares? It's getting a revamp and will be empty pretty soon. The only reason it isn't completely emptied now is I need the rock to support the the critters my mandarins & pipefish feed on) To save power I disconected some of the lighting on the RH third of the tank which is now barren.

Anyway I have added some "non-polluted" live-rock to seed the new dry rock in a 120 gallon tank that I am using for the transition & rock curing process. I moved a T5 fixture over the tank so I can keep an eye on some test corals & I added a pair of true percs to help with the cycle.
