started out with a basic tank and added the features I like from the more expensive tanks. picture framed glass is top fav. DIY has kept my interest in the hobby long term. working on the sump and attaching all of the tech to the walls before building the outer wall next

ran into a little issue with the UV plumbing size. still working on the tech. tomorrow will be filling the tank completely, today was a mini test run making sure no leaks. then designing wall panels.
