Build is on hold do to poor customer service from DSA (deep sea aquatics). The tank has some small imperfection and I'm wait to see if they are going to fix the tank.

Ok starting to move forward. Hurricane Isaac has given me some time to do work on the tank. I finished the main rock work tell me what you think.

It's going to sandblasted and then they are going to apply an offshore three coat paint system...Zinc, Intermediate, then epoxy top coat. Same paint system they use to paint pipes and offshore equipment with. It's like a $1500 paint job.
