My 180 Gallon (681 Liters) Build From Start To Finish

Sorry all for the delay in an update. I have completed the following a have a bunch of pictures to post.
 
Tank now has a black background
Sump along with plumbing is complete
Automatic water change system is complete
Electrical is completed under the tank with timers ready to time LOL.
The stand is complete minus doors which will be added last.
I started on the canopy lower section, now I have the top section with lights to work on.
My C02 system is in and the regulator needs to be put together. 
The substrate arrived 13 bags of Activ Flora Black (Hope I have enough bags)
 
Picked up a smith dual stage regulator with a Burkert type 6011 solenoid
Here is the stand with the doors and moulding coming soon. Placecd the sump under the tank and hooked up the plumbing. Still have to rehook up the drip line from the filter units and one overflow into the sump on the right.

Here are pictures or the canopy. The 1st picture with the top up shows the section were the heat sinks and the electroics for the led light system. This section is completly blocked off from the tank area to keed the heat away from the water and the water mosture from the electronics. I still have to add vent openings on each side and two fans on the top blowing the hot air out.

The above link doesn't work for some reason maybe the caps. Below is the full link to the video. As you will see the top was modified because I need to rebuild do to the fact that the pine wood used started to warp on the front panel. I need to give it more stability by attaching it to the top instead of having it hinged. I changed the skin because the cat wanted to use it as a scratching post. I hope everyone likes it and it you have any questions please send me an email or contact me via Youtube. Please don't forget to LIKE and Subscribe to my channel for more updates.
