    Looking really good! What a great placement. I love how you got all angles from the different rooms and the outside shot is classic :) It looks like an alien ship landed inside your house lol. What livestock do you keep?

    Also great job and getting all of that done in a pretty darn short amount of time! Building the stand, staining, moving the tank, etc.......and MOVING as well - Wow!

    Thank you very much lol yea I'm exhausted this week.
    Live stock is going to be schools of fish.
    My girlfriend like tangs so I'm trying to do I'm research and figure what tangs get along and what schools of fish will look good while thrive off of each other.
