Bondo? What about for the outside corner beads? My goal was to try to make the bar blend into and resemble the walls around it, that's why all of the extra work. Man I hate this part.

How goes the painting? Getting any closer to getting your tank moved over?

I've managed to finally find time to finish mudding, taping and putting a coat of primer on everything. What does everyone think of the color? It's only primer so if the wife doesn't agree with it I can easily change it.

Go with it. It's a great colour.

Thanks everyone. I have a lot of respect for the tradesman who do stuff like this every day. Mudding and taping truley is an art form. The actual tank move will likely not happen for a couple of weeks yet, I need to acquire all of the plumbing parts still.

Chris, small is better right now due to the space issue in the tank. If you can hold off until I move the tank I will have pobably (accidentally) made more room in case you have a larger frag. I was eyeing them when I was feeding your fish. I think they're cool, and a good potential host for a clown fish.
