Alright, finally I get to post my own tank thread.
I'd like to thank all of you for the ideas and tips which helped me to build my tank. So far is been running for two weeks, soon I'll transfer the fish from my old 72 gal bowfront FOWLR.

Equipment:
Display Tank, 90 Gal AGA
Sump/ Refugium, 40 Gal Breeder
Skimmer, SWC 160 Xtreme Cone
Phosban, two little fishes.
Closed loop, Mag drive 9.5
Overflow, 1500 gph from glass-holes
Return pump, little giant 4-MDQX-SC, 1325 gph

Will add controller, calcium reactor and other goodies when my account goes back up from 0's


here is the link for the rest of the pictures.

LOL, no its not a book, it's a 1 inch piece of foam that came protecting the SWC skimmer, I glued it to the piece of wood holding the pump, it reduces vibration noise completely.

Clearly well thought out. Neat work with the plumbing. My only concern would be whether the strenth/integrity of the back panel is impacted by the number of holes.
That was my concern at first, I read couple of things about it and followed the instructions about spacing and not drilling close to the edges.
Oh having your tank level has a lot of say in it.
