Mike and I worked on electrical last night. We ran into one problem, but I should have the sorted out soon enough. I will be picking up the necessary tools tonight as I will be starting on the mudding next.
Wow Pharaoh, thanks for turning me on to this thread. It is very long and going is slow but you and Mike have done awesome work!!!! 2 thumbs up from me. 
Thanks Bre!
BTW all. I got the first coat of mud on the walls tonight. There are a few spots I couldn't get, but that's what you get when you set up a tank before you get the drywall finished. LOL

WOW! You guys certainly get the persistence award! Your collective rooms look awesome!
Pharaoh, question about your stands: what do you do for lateral bracing? They look super beefy for top loads, but I'd be afraid about any side loads too. Not knocking your skills, you obviously have a lot of experience just curious if you've considered it and any building tricks you have.

The stand is built deep so that the weight is centered on the stands. I would have no worries about this setup tipping over at all. I have actually climbed on this before(while the tanks were full).
I have all kinds of tricks!

Yes, I gotta get some stuff done in the basement, but the stand is on the list of things to be done.
I guess it time to give this thread some BUMP action. And what better way than with pics!!!!!!!!!!
Ran into issues with fish trying to swim down the plumbing. I knew this was an issue, but I ignored it until it go the best of me. Here's the solution for the plumbing.
I also posted a picture of one of my recent buys.
