Des, I did paint the back of the tank with Krylon plastic and glass paint. It worked really well, but it stunk up the apartment when I painted it. I also missed a couple of times and painted the carpet.

I modified the sump from the 12 gallon to the 50 gallon. I added a couple of baffles and put the Berlin skimmer directly in the sump. I will post a pic of the sump when I have it a little more organized I decided to not go with a refugium yet due to space. The halide ballasts will take up most of the remaining room.

Des I still need the top if it is available. Do you still have any live rock or corals for sale?

Cool, you'll have to pick up the Berlin top sometime. I don't have any rock or coral for sale anymore. Unless you want gsps, or I have some larger colonies of pavona if you want...anyway, come by when you get the top and see what you want.... Is the sump hard to get into now, cause I know it was fairly tall. Also, I would put your blue returns closer to the water surface just in case you have a power outage so you don't drain that much out of the main tank.

Thanks

Des
