Looks like it's gunna be an awesome setup!..

I would have gone with schedule 80 spears valves instead of those sch40 ones you used. They are a pain to move after awhile. Not sure if it's too late, but just thought I would let ya know. Excited to see this thing finished

Thanks everyone! Really appreciate you following along... I hope to get some salt in the water in the next couple of days, as well as getting the drain lines ran and sump drilled for the return pump! I can't wait to get it flowing! Lol then build a canopy for the lights lots to do!

I'd prefer to see an opening in the rocks just off center, but that's just me. I'm sure you will make it cool.

I had to feed the wife, we also noticed the other updates on the interior wood work, flooring, and trim. You have been quite busy of the last couple of months. I am looking forward to see the tank in 6 to 12 months, and also looking forward to the build process before then. have fun and a few beers/
