Thanks!! I really appreciate the feedback. Spent a lot of time an effort making decisions and with the support of some great local ATL reefers, especially some friends who built the custom stand and lamp tree's, I was able to accomplish the look I wanted for the tank....

The photos above are a little old, so I will update when I can. I just wanted to add my build since I just joined R2R.

Thanks again!
