I wanted to start a thread to document my new build. The title is what I told my wife after having 387,642 tanks over the years, at least that's how many she sees it as. To this point, I've purchased the tank, sump, and plumbing pieces. I'm building a custom stand and canopy for the setup so that it matches our home cabinetry, as that was a must for my wife as she's an interior designer. The pics below will document where the tank is going and the start of the stand. I currently have the tank stand base completed and plan to finish the cabinetry for the stand this weekend as well as complete the plumbing. I'm very excited about this build and will be following the BRS/WWC hybrid method they explained in their video series, which starts with a 4 month cycle before adding corals. Let's begin!
