Love the update pics. You have some amazing corals. Love how you have the corals all in groups. Looks cool. Love the scolys too. Some nice ones in there.

Too funny. I feel like we all have to be OCD in this hobby.

I'm the same way. Everything has to be in its "perfect" spot. I think i've epoxied some corals like 20 times to get them right. It's worth it and has paid off since you're tank is amazing!

I'm the same way and thank you again for the compliment.

The electrical box has been painted. I'm now going to add the apex and mp 40 controls.

Just added some trim work to the canopy. My carpenter once again did an amazing job.

Thanks! The guy that built it for me has made everything I've ask happen and more. We are working on the stand soon.

Wow is that canopy free hanging from wall mount only? I like that idea with no cables.
