Looking good Spyder. Did you ever get your display tank? Just FYI, on my Marineland 75, only the bottom panel is tempered. But I got mine from a mom and pop lfs not Petco or Petsmart.

Thanks @Scratch08. I'm going to get the DT as soon I finish the fish room, that is almost done. I confirmed with Perfecto manufacturer that PetSupermaket 75g is only tempered on the bottom.

Here we go !!!! Just got the tank, thanks to my brother for that awesome gift. Just did a water test and no leaks. Now still undecided about the overflow.

Update. Drilled the tank. Everything came out great. Also start plastic dipping the tank back, bottom and one side. But the unexpected happens. I can’t find the gasket for the transfer overflow. Cant believe that. Look around, ask my kids and wife and nobody see it. So, I called Eshopps to see if they can send me another set or go to ACE hardware if they may have one for that size. Patience....

Working on a new sump on a 20g long tank. This is the prototype before cutting the 1/4” plexiglass. Still need to do the bubble trap/media tray before the return pump.
