It's going to be a beauty. Also something to add to your list if you want, upgrade the lighting, i can barely see your fish.
I have pretty good lighting; I have four T8s : i got to take a pic with the light on.

Damn I should have done that years ago! It looks great. Did you get the wet/dry working ok? All that filtration on that tank you should be able to drink that water
Yeah you should of lol Thanks for the tank! I got the sump working fine its a little loud but im trying to find away to quiet down the overflow box. The filtration is great cant go wrong with 2 fx5s and a 30 gallon sump. It even cleared up the water after my gf pour half a can of food in the tank. She said she got scared cause the oscars were jumping out the tank when she went to feed them but im still doing a 50 water change.

Yea I was going to build a little box with some foam insulation in it to place over the overflow but never got around to it. Good luck

I like the lay out.

I've got a black and tan Shiba Inu too! Awesome breed but you rarely see them.
Shibas are great! Mine is not like most shibas i hear about. She loves to be next to me and loves to meet new people and dogs. Most shbas i met are very standoffish and skiddish
