I am surprised it has not been asked yet, but what are you doing for filtration? I can only imagine the how many scrubbies you are gonna need :O

I am going to use the same filtration I had on the 900 gallon system.

Sump space is about 220 gallons (For now) a 55 gallon trashcan full of scrubbies, and an equal amount of fully submerged scrubbies in the sump. Bio-tower trashcan is run off a Reeflo Dart and the main circulation pump will be 1 (For now) maybe dual Reeflo hammerhead pumps running at about 4200 GPH.

looks great man i'm really jealous. are you not worried about those studs being a bit on angle? i'm sure your tank will be fine but they would be pretty easy to fix.

id be sure to seal the walls around the tank from the moisture. not sure where the tank is located in the house or what the walls around it are made of. im sure you have already thought it over but just incase and good luck it looks awesome cant wait to see more.
