Looks really good!

Thanks everyone, I still have to repaint the floor , I have more of the tropical ocean paint , waiting to get fuge setup and going and move the Topoff reservoir off the floor. I will have plenty of storage under the table top. I plan on adding a deep sand bed in the fuge with a few garden eels. maybe some micro algae. add some color.

Your babies are adorable. I had 2 of them years ago and have been looking for the right moment to get a new one
