Here we go. Modded my DIY stand to accommodate a 60g with bottom brace and the massive eshopps sump. Still figuring out the right aquascape but need to finalize soon bc coral and fish are still living in damn bins.

Corner overflows are trickier than I thought. Should've just bought the SCA 50G.

Looking good! I like the scape so it more or less blocks the overflow. Looks like there are a lot of caves and hiding places along with plenty of shelves for coral. Nice work.

I think I actually have the same tank, just set it up last month. That's a deep blue with 1 low iron (starfire) panel? Mine was sold to me used as a Marineland, but I couldn't find any that matched the look of it except for a deep blue. I went with a more central aquascape like a pyramid, cut some egg crate for the points that touch the glass, only small 3x4" pieces so it doesn't effect sand diggers etc.

Following along on your build, keep posting pics of your progress! Looks like you have some sweet coral waiting to get in that tank.

Finally fixes my leaky bulkheads and am only dealing with a small leak on the return line dripping into the sump. All coral, fish, and inverts are in with minimal coral loss (so far). Hoping my sps bounce back and will need to upgrade to a hydra/kessil eventually.

Will be rescaping the rock this week to something similar to this guy but needed to prioritize getting everything up and running.
