FishyFishy's 33 Gal SPS dedicated build

[FishyFishy!]

So I started this project on October 20th, after receiving a $10 33 REGULAR with overflow score off kijiji. I am just now getting to my build thread. In fact, I just did the whole thing which took me an hour... then clicked something... and it erased the whole thing!!! Anyways, this will be my first SPS dominated tank... and I can't wait! Tank is currently cycling.
