This is My 75G saltwater tank. I made the stand and canopy so that I'd have easy access to everything for cleaning and maintenance. The front and two side are removable for access underneath. I designed the canopy so that the front comes off. The lid is also removable for when I need to clean or replace lights. (Don't want stuff falling into the water) My tank use to freshwater and isn't pre-drilled so I am using a CPR overflow to get water into the 30G long sump. The overflow also feeds a small refugium where I will grow copepods. The sump holds the skimmer, heaters, and return pump. There is an ATO unit that keeps the return section full and has audible alarms for when water gets low in the return section or the resevoir.

It will remain dry until I move, which will be in the next 3-12 months.

Birdiemarie, your wish is my command. Here is a pic with fish.

Yeah, It's depressing seeing an empty tank, so I bought some gel window clings to out on the glass. :lol:
