Got home unpacked it watch the corny dvd the british guy telling me about Salt Water expericence lol. I assembeled the stand, i must say it is quality finished solid wood that why it was so heavy. Very impressed by the design of system, this weekend i will assemble the tank here are a few shots from my cellphone

Nice ripple on the surface! Do you think the stock pump is any good? Most AIO the first thing that gets upgraded are the pumps.

Please borrow a camera, cell phone shots are not doing this beauty any justice!

Ocean City cheapest in city $2000, they also give u a $100 store credit on anything aswell. Other retailers saying their under $2000 without stand, or over $2100 with live rock only credit.
