Well after months and months I got the aquarium I had been eyeing! And even better it came with an amazing stand and canopy made by DRIFTWOOD Aquarium Furniture (http://customaquariumfurniture.com/)
Any way Got sick couldnt get it up so it was sitting my garage for a few months. Had some family come move it in for me and then it sat... and sat.....
But finally got it up and plumed, got some sand and rock in it and need to fill it up! So here are some pictures:

So the plumbing was already pretty much done so it wasnt hard, plus I had all the extra pieces I need. My wife always complains about all the extra PVC and connectors but I was glad I kept them all. So it only took about 5 min to plumb it!

Thanks Kevin
It is like a dream build for me, I am taking it super slow and making sure it is all what I want. I dont want to be thinking "SHOOT I should have......." in a few months. Its been hard going so slow but so far I am way happy.
For example. By waiting to do my plumbing I changed it so that my drain has a section off to the left with a ball valve... of that is a little nipple. That way I can hook up my reactors and dont have to use even more pumps=more cords. I saw it on Reef2Reef and thought it was awesome, apparently lots of people do it!
Eric
Thank you I was to lazy to go downstairs and check.

Update:
Here are some pictures.... just got the water in it. Just need put the sand in it.
before water thinking I will add some more rock onto the left side to make it taller.
WATER IS IN!
Kinda hard to see but this is the small waves from the Jebao on the LOWEST setting. I turned it up and water was going everywhere!
