Left side view. Testing out how to post images. Think I finally figured this out.
 
Thanks. Just moved a few things around a bit last week.

However most of the structures are not movable since the rocks are zip tied to a PVC structure
 
Canopy and lighting

Also, Heres the canopy set up.

The frame is mounted on the wall and the panels can be removed. This allows for a open top. Also the MH fixture is attached to a PVC fixture with wheels that can roll forward or backwards. The lighting is 14K MH, 2 48" T5s and 2 small blue LED fixtures and a small power compact.
 
Specs on setup? Size of d.t sump etc....Skimmer, looks like an Sro.What model is it and whats your total water volume? Tank looks great!

The Skimmer is a Reef Octopus SUPER SRO 5000EXT External Protein Skimmer.
I love it, a great skimmer, easy to disassemble and clean. I had a downdraft skimmer prior to this one and the maintenance is so much easier.

Tank is actually a 233 Gallon 60X30X30 with a 25 gallon sump. Also the Tank is 1 inch thick acrylic. (Made by Midwest Custom Acrylic Aquariums)
 
Ok my Tank is finally all broke down. :( Ready to start over in Dayton Ohio. just got a new house with a unfinished basement and can't wait to build this into the basement with a reef room. Will post plans and the new build as things move along.

Learned alot from this build thanks to some great ideas from the team at Coral Corral in Tampa.
