Very cool James! Thanks for sharing.

Will the mechanicals for the tank be underneath? Or is there a fish closet / room elsewhere? What kind of lighting is planned?

 

[coralfarmer]

Gonna let the epoxy cure for a couple days then add water.

It's starting to look like and everyone is excited including the dogs Spartacus & Maximus.
