Spending my time down in OC made me want to get back into the hobby. That, and also seeing Shaun's (4x5) tank on nano-reef.com inspired me to go do a shallow reef myself. Been busy getting back and collecting pieces of equipments and finding a maker for my tank. Finally can say that I have almost everything I need thus finally making this thread. Tank will be drilled tomorrow and picked up, my friend that works at a carpentry shop is helping me make a stand and my sump will probably take a couple more weeks.

Equipment
Overflow is nice, great job from @Elite-Aquatics
Started working on the stand...
Priming it
Top and base done.
Tank is done, painted and overflow installed
Another angle
Now just gotta get the sump and stand finished. Do all the plumbing and then I can get this baby wet. Hopefully I can get all of this done by mid March but we'll see.
