Is the HDPE plate the same for the sump bottom? Great idea for the tank so no ugly foam needed.

Yep. HDPE under the tank and stand.

You can only use HDPE if you are 100% confident that your stand is perfectly flat and level.

I finally got the panels and door mounted today. It took me a while because I wanted to find a way to have the side panels removable.

I ended up using IKEA kitchen doors to skin the aluminum frame. I bolted on some 3/4" thick PVC strips to the metal frame so that I could have something to screw into.

I originally purchased 3 wood panels but it was looking too heavy. I decided to use glossy white for the sides and wood for the front door.

The sump I custom designed is now built. I am going to pick it up tomorrow afternoon. :)
