yup.
But the sump currently is not seen at all. In order to have the cutout I want, I have to figure out a way to shade it also. I am thinking of ordering one of those retractable blinds and put it behind the panel to hide the sump when I need to or the wife wants to. I also have some other DIY ideas, but have not played around with them yet to know if they would work.
I also still have to play around with the trim around the "window " idea. Being as the Apex and other stuff is on t he other side, thinking I can do a double window to display the electronic and such, so it matches looks wise. But would have to lower some of the electrons (not hard), so that they are shown in the window. I also want to move the iPad down there and off the wall.
Excuse the cloudy water, this was right after I kicked all the detritus up in the sump for the corals to get a good meal lol.
But you can see how with the stand, it would look weird with only one window in the left panel. Luckily they are just held there with magnets and easily removable to mess around with things.
