I've asked them to hold it until the 1st part of March because of getting some stuff ready at the house, but I'm super excited! Can't wait to get this tank going!!
Man, all you need are a couple bar stools. :face-with-tears-of-joy:

I really like this.

I have new pics!!! These are of the stand and canopy in progress. I'm told paint should be happening today (or sometime this week), and then we're getting ready for shipping!

I love a ledge in the front of a tank the last stand I built one, but next tank I'm going to do something like that, that's awesome!!!

225 gallons. Thankfully, the stand on this one was already built by CDA. It is very nice! Even has a bar built in!

LOL at first I thought you meant a 'bar' like the fix for the RedSea tank. Either way :)

@Daniel@R2R - Ummm... how many tanks have you had since the OP in 2022? I'm afraid you may be one of those people who cycles their tank for 6 months? I could refer you to someone who could council you through a quicker cycle.... BTW - nice tank

Yeah...I've been practically "reefless" for far too long. Excited that this one is finally here and that hopefully I can get it going over the next couple of months. I don't expect this to be a quick set up. :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:
