You may regret not putting anything on the floor to protect it. It's not too late to quickly drain the tank into a stock tank and slide a piece of acrylic under there...

The cleats look great, thanks for the pics! I need to do some work on my stand this year (it has rusted), and probably redesign my panels. I'll keep this in mind.

Update time...

Tank is just over 6 months now. I've decided to not rush this time. I'm mainly keeping LPS at the moment, but slowly starting to add some sps as the system matures.

Fairly low maintenance, mostly sitting back and enjoying the view

As the system matures I will be moving towards more of a SPS dominant tank, but in the meantime I'm really enjoying some of these corals...
