Welcome to the salty side and the community (even though you've been lurking for 2yrs). LOL. Beautiful tank and back room setup! It's cool to see the progression pics back to back. It's like watching time lapsed photography. 
Edit: I didn't realize this was an older thread. Still the tank is gorgeous!

here are some update from my tanks, for those who might be interested.
first, my wife gave me a wonderful little girl that is happily keeping us awake like an overly strong coffee
after that, I had a leak from a badly installed PH probe that I didnt see for a few weeks...It caused a few damage to a useless MDF plank, but caused salinity from tank to go from 1.026 to 1.021 by spilling saltwater and ATO filling in
There was the upper part of my skimmer that broke of while simply removing the cup for cleaning...will try to glue it together someday soon, but since I only make it run 1 week every 2 months, Im in no hurry...it just sucks to pays about 1000$ for something cheaply built...
On the good side, I saved another disaster when I realized a leak on my jebao UV clarifier where plastic from the body became thin as paper...
And tank inhabitants are still growing and happy as ever!
