Leishman's 135g AGE Build

[Leishman]

It's getting closer to the arrival of my new 36x36x24 AGE tank so I thought I'd start a new thread to detail the progress. (Here is the thread detailing the rise, fall, and rebuild of my 250g that is being repalced with the AGE Tank: https://www.reef2reef.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14382&highlight=display )

CADs of the new tank:

The tank will be viewable on two sides (they are Starfire) and will be placed left of the TV, that will be removed, in the below pic (wall has been moved 3' to the left to accommodate).

I don't have pics but the wall has been moved and made in to a 1/2 wall (lower 1/2 missing) so the sump can be under the tank, go through the wall to the mini fishroom where the exrernal overflow will be (wall is cut so the tank sits flush).

Here is the sump:

Great design. Are you ordering it online or locally? I can't seem to find someone locally or anyone who responds to emails. Can't wait to see it!

the sump as of Saturday. The ledges are for eggcrate, the end of the sump in the fishroom will be my frag tank.

AGE out of TX for the tank. The sump was made by a local reefer in the DC area.
