    I know. That work thing always seems to get in the way of my plans.

    My wife is really going to be mad when I retire. She thinks I spend too much time with the tank now ha ha

    I've had a busy few days. The frames for my screen tops are done, and I finished up the main part of my stand this evening. Because of clearance issues I'm going to have to take the bottom out of the stand and set my sump on the floor. The glass shop called today and had my glass ready so I'll be getting my sump started real soon.
    Here's a couple pics

    Sump is almost finished I still have to check for leaks, but it's close enough to start mocking up my plumbing

    Thanks
    The trick is to zoom in enough to show some details in the pic but not enough to show the flaws;D
