What sounds fair to pay for this upgrade?
54 gallon corner Bowfront.

Need to: Convert to Reef Ready

1. Add 3/16” black ACRYLIC panel for overflow
2. Drill GLASS twice 1-1/4” bulkheads
3. Run PVC/HOSING for DRAIN/RETURN
4. PAINT side glass panels
5. ADJUST cabinet floor/door to convert for Sump Space
 
As a retired home maintenance company owner, an avid diy guy and into reef tanks, I think you are looking at 8 to 12 hours of work. But A LOT depends on what needs to be done to the stand. I charged $40/hour and I had more business than I could handle.
