As for water testing - I have to slow down a bit for the next while. I may fill it with ro/di water and do an extended leak test over the summer, but plumbing in the sump and adding salt will have to wait for now.
A weak point of the tank is typically the joints. I'm glad to hear you strengthened them ... I would hate to see your fish flopping on the floor.
