Well I've been stalking the forums for a fairly decent amount of time and have asked a few questions and I do believe I can finally show all of you the tank I've been working on now that its finally aquascaped and full of water. I ordered 100lbs of dry rock from marco rocks and actually received 108lbs some of which was rubble that I placed into my sump. No fish or any inverts yet I just barely got my salinity to 1.023 and letting the tank cycle.
 
.
 
Heres my sump and plumbing, I made the sump out of an old 30g tank I wasn't using anymore.
 
 
I need to rebuild my screen lids I forgot to leave a small gap near the edges so that any powerheads I placed into the tank the cords wouldn't lift up the lid like the one in the tank currently does.

Looks good! looks a lot like ours :)
good luck trying to take any half decent coral shots through the glass though, the bow on the tank make it EXTREMELY difficult.

I like the aquascape much better than the first time. Looking good man. What type of lights are you using?

4 bulb t5ho (216w), (2)10k white and 2 actinic that came with the fixture I know I need better bulbs but I just haven't gotten around to that part yet that's why I've been taking my time with coral while I research what bulbs and color combination will work best.
