shookONES 40b Reef

[shookONES]

What's up RC? I've got build threads on a few smaller forums, but I figure I'd post one up here too. This is my first reef and I'd love to hear any comments and criticism.

Here is the tank as it sits today...

Specs on the system are as follows...

Tank: AGA 40g breeder (36x18x16) w/ Glass-Holes 700gph overflow and 3/4" return
Sump: DIY 20g with refugium
Lighting: Tek 6 Bulb T5
Skimmer: SRO XP1000sss

I'm taking my time with this tank. Its been up since October 1st, 2012. I started with 40lbs of base rock and 40lbs of reef sand. I seeded the tank with some LR out of friends' tanks and let it brew. My goal for this setup is an SPS dominated mixed reef.

Looks good. Should make a nice reef tank.
