As several of you know I recently bought a new tank, 225 G Perfecto RR, well I haven't been real social since (ie. not returning calls and generally a hermit) well a buddy of mine and his mermaid as well as myself 
have been working on the stand, he finished this last weekend with the exception of a few handles I had to order from Lowes, and being finished w/ poly, it's almost ready for the change over, still have yet to figure out the way to hang my lights but I have ideas? Thinking of adding a small Mangrove tank next to it to help with nitrates and such, as well as butt that end of the tank to the end of the wall and therefor enabling me to run a valance of sorts to cover my lights. Input is very welcome as most of you know I'm new to this.:beer: :clown: :dance:

the stand in the second looks great. Mangroves are somewhat challenging and I would get them for fun/appearance more than function as macroalgaes are more efficient at removing nitrates. Congrats on finishing up so far and good luck as the project continues.
