Hello,

Yes actually I have made a bit of progress... I was a little side tracked by Tilelaying, Grouting and all the rock for the Facade of the room but was finally able to start work on the Overflows and the Back of the tank

I built the overflows from Plywood that then had Acrylic overflow slotted gates siliconed to the top... then this entire fixture I covered in the BrewCoat Epoxy... I then took 12 cans of the Black Pond foam and decorated the back of the tank... 2 days later I gobbed more BrewCoat all over the dryed and hardened foam... then while it was wet I sprinkled coral chunks, shells, rubble and argonite sand all over the back... now as it has dried it has the texture and appearance of rock... I am hoping that with time as coralline covers this it will be perfect
