SWEET!!!! Full of water, salt and some rock. Not much longer and there will be fishes and coral, nice job bud. Can't wait to see what you do for rock work, make sure you ask the misses to take some pic from the front as you do it, I want to see you with a snorkel & mask on.

I've got my super long black zip-ties ready to go and I'm sure I'll use some epoxy here and there too. Nothing fancy I'm keeping it simple piles I think. Sloping piles rather than towers so the corals mounted lower down are not shaded when the top ones grow (as badly)!

Nobody wants or gets to see that lol. I think I'm going to lay a sheet of plywood across the tank to scape my piles on. I'll stand in there and work at my temporary bench.
