That's sweet!! I never see plywood tanks tho especially reefs.

Nice looking build! What type of paint did you use on the inside of your plywood sump to cover the fiberglass and epoxy?

Well these photos are now old in my last post. Since this we have lost half our Sps and all our octospawn. I've recovered the tank from the crash and it's coming back greatly.
