Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
You may have issues connecting the two together. I have seen people say they have problems and some sucess. I usually go glass to glass and so on just incase. The last thing you want is for a baffle to fall out when everything is running great!
Yea, they are JPEG but I cahnged them to GIF to get them small becuase the large ones are hard to see. I will try and leave them but resize them and see what happens.
Ok, more has come together......

Did you think about painting the inside rather than stain? If the fuge is going to be in there a nice white would reflect the light a bit more and may hold up to water better than a poly coat.
I have to admit I am a bit scared that with a tank this big I am going to put it on the stand and it will come crashing down. I think I would have to cry.
It is not that bad at all. There are a lot of plans out there. Check this one out.

I will be glad to help. I have a lot of tools and really enjoy doing it. I would not charge you anything if you provide dinner and maybe a couple beers. :)
If anyone needs some high level tech advice (Cisco, UNIX, data security, AD, exchange) let me know and I will gladly help out. That is what I do to pay for my reef habit. I would be glad to help out as much as I can.
