Both tanks are acrylic. I built the stand myself (with the help of my daughters). I will post more info on equipment when I place it on or in the tank.
 
All dry/dead reef rock and sand.

Awesome keep us updated on the build.
 
Looking good!
 
Tank is filled. I still need to fill the sump, that should be tomorrow. Then it'll be time to rock n' roll!
 
Sump is halfway filled. Here is a few pics of some of the equipment.

Jebao DC 12000 return pump.
AquaMaxx EM 300 Skimmer.
Next Reef MR1 reactors. (Will be ran off of the return pump)

More to follow.

Tank and sump are filled, waiting on day off to start it up! I figure I should be there to observe as much as I can.
 
Cycling going well. Canopy built, stained and polyurethaned. Working on skin for stand. What do you guys think?
