Very Nice looking stand...I am sure the build would be great too !!!

The tank is a glasscages tank,so please don't bash me to hard lol.I have a 120 they built for 3 years now and no problems.Sure the silicone joints aren't the greatest but with all the ureo braceing it shouldn't bust a seam.I will get pics of the tank and 75 gallon sump.

I got my return pump in today,it's a quiet one 9000 rated 2300 gph .Has anyone here ever used the 9000.Just wondering how quiet it really is.

I now have the tank in place and have started putting water in.Will get pics later.

After going through the sps forum,I would really like to make my aquascaping look like the one from Japan called reef in the sky.

The sand will go in tomorrow.
