I am pretty happy how th paint turned out considering I was using a paint brush:biggrin:

Next on the to do list,

1 - figure out what I am going to do about the doors. May build them or may purchase them from the supplier of our kitchen cabinets so they will match our kitchen.

2 - I have an electrical outlet in line with the tank on the wall it is butting up against. May looking at mounting a few electrical boxes in my stand and jumping the outlet from the wall.

3 - Time to start building the sump - I am really looking forward to this and will start it soon!

Thanks Reef!

I lucked out on this as I am not a finish carpenter in any way. I used some other builds on here as a guide with my own touch.

I would not call it a "fine piece of furiture" though:biggrin:

What I didnt want, as someone else said;

"something the size of a fridge in the middle of my family room looking nasty!"

:lol:

I figured I would post a few shots

Timerers and skimmer doing thier thing, one thing you cant see is above the left timer is a powerhead power thingy, alternating the power to the powerheads.

Sweet!
The corals look real happy and so does the anemone & friends.
I'm seriously jealous of your plumbing & especially the electrical work - It looks like you don't have to do the limbo to get around & do maintenance :biggrin:

how much was that part from mothers music ?

It is fine for now, it is going to get tighter.

I will be adding a few other items in there as time and funds become available.
