Thanks. Takes a long time to build. Not sure if it would be economical for you.

Wow, that looks amazing. Very nice job on the stand/canopy. you don't even need fish in there and it looks good.

Well it looks like the tank will be getting filled this weekend. Aquascaping with Marco rocks. And some live rock in the sump to seed the tank. I will be using 2 MP40wES powerheads. I am a little concerned with mounting the controllers in the canopy as this tank will not have glass tops.

The tank is wet. Aquascaping done.

Put 40lbs of Arag-Alive in the sump. Let it circulate for 24 hrs in the sump. Switched the valve to the DT. Now I have a very cloudy tank.

Sure hope it clears fast.
