I'm going to be posting a lot of pictures and not so much writing because its easier to see progress than to explain everything.

Next step is drilling the tank for a 700 GPH Glass-holes kit and paint.

what do you plan to do with to the holes on the bottom of the glass? are you gonna run the pipes from the glass holes kit into them?

I am going to use the bulkheads like you normally would then I am going to cut the pipes coming out of it as short as possible and then I am going to silicone the hell out of them and cap them. Then they will get covered with sand.

I don't think I'm going to use the sump on this tank decided to leave some room for ATO and reactors. I was originally gonna put it behind the wall in the laundry room but changed my mind.

Ok I finally took a razor blade to the glass to remove the silicone. Glassholes kit will hopefully be here tomorrow.

Glassholes kit will def be here tomorrow drilling the tank and gonna paint it in the morning. What is the best substrate for an sps tank I plan to have around an inch hopefully it will cover the caps coming out of the bulkheads.

My first stand I ever built and it ain't too shabby neither :)
It is a little high for my bedroom but I think it will look nice when it is skinned and painted.

With the 3/4 inch plywood on top it should be a hair over 35".

If anyone has any advice or input please share before it is too late.
