    Yes very good job I will say again! LOL


    It really pays off to take your time and do some quality work.

    What are the dimensions on the tank?

    sorry I didn't take any pics while I was building it. The tank is an AGA 125 (72 x 18 x 23). I knew I should have snapped some pics while I was in the process but never did. I'll take some more pics of the plumbing when I get a chance. Thanks again for all the comments.

    the lighting is a t5 fixture. I am not planning on doing any corals in this tank so that is what I will probably stick with.

    Very nice. Kudos!

    Question: how is the front door being attached to the stand?
