Got a little more work done and started to fill it.
I put up some drywall on the ceiling above the tank. This is the last screw.... and how close it made it before my last of 8 batteries died and I couldn't find a screw driver (left my tool bag at work).  Of course right. I ended up using a robertson and a hammer to get it to a point I could mud over it. Look water is finally going in!  After about 24 hours  And a little look at how the show side of it is turning out. And yes I know I need some staples for the electrical.  I have a heater in it right now with a power head, I want to start getting the salt where it needs to be and the temp so I can put a couple rocks in there. I need to finish the plumbing, but waiting on some vibration isolation to mount the pump on.

I have drywall above the tank, and it's just the cold air return shiny cardboard stuff. I'll take another picture today.

Got lots done now, fish are in the tank, and everything is coming together, just a massive mess right now.
Here are the drains finished.  Overflow kinda finished, the right pipe is my emergency pipe, I have a T on it right now because I cut the pipe a 1/2" too short.  Gap between the tank and the wall above it, I think I'll use that pond spray foam to fill the gap?  All the fish in, and my first aquascape, most fish still hiding.  Vertex Alpha 300, this is a big skimmer, dual pumps, but dead quiet.  Looking into the sump... not sure I like just having a bunch of live rock in there, but not sure what else I would do.  Vibration isolation mounts for my pump, started with a hammerhead, but that pumped just too much water for my overflow weir to handle, this barracuda flows a much more appropriate rate.  And the current aquascape, not sure I am really happy with it still.  And a couple fish shots here.
