This is the first time I've ever tried to build anything as far as carpentry, sumps, and reef tanks go. I think it's came a long way and I'm very proud of it but I know I still got quite a ways to go. (Picture of my potato for tax)

Nice! I love 40 breeders. Great work on the stand, good use of metal support brackets.
