OK, back on the project. Tank stained, varnished (one coat to go), and drilled with that useless corner box ripped out.

Egg crate bottom and PVC frame to support live rock, with space beneath for circulation.

Cabinet stained awaiting las coat of varnish, and new hardware

Sump with space for ASM g2 left, return pump middle and refugium right.

Live rock still curing happily. Hermits, snails and bugs. No worms, but I'll find some later.

Sump for LR curing tank. 6500k compact fluorescent, ASM G2 and a temp controller driving 2 heaters at 81F, 8.1pH, 0-0-0 ammonia trites and trates. Calcium is a little low, but I'll get plenty of coraline later.

Lights and sand sitting in my living room awaiting the tank.

Getting there!
