Yep, tomorrow's job is actually to remove the canopy and start coating the inside with several coats of the blue gel coat. Once it is coated, I will seal between the canopy and the tank with silicone to make fully sure.
In-between those blue coats, I will be staining the outer plywood and then start the outer trim.
I will also be modifying the spraybar so that it is much closer to the water level, or just under it.
If I were you I would get a second pump as a back up, you never know when a pump will die and then it could be a scramble to find a replacement. It's always better to have a spare just in case.
The level in my tank does not stay constant when the pump is on (also a mag1200). I am also using a durso standpipe and the water varies by about 1/2" (low to peak level) every 5 minutes or so. It might have to do with the size of hole in the top of the pipe, maybe too small. But it is working okay for the past couple of years.

I have just got a 1500 GPH pump today (my LFS ordered it in for me). Next I am going to get a replacement impellar for my broken Mag 12 and I'm also thinking of getting a Quiet One 6000 also. Then my Korean pump and Mag 12 can be good spares.
Yeah, it was a doddle, once I had found a place locally where I could get some PVC fittings.....there are no Lowes or Home Depot in Korea you know!

none!!? , and there is no equivalent either?
Man, there must be some fine women there...dunno if I could live with no Homey depot or Lowe's unless there were some super fine women...
