good luck with the project. looks good. As far as the sump goes, if you keep finding yourself looking away from it, you can always go with a dyi/custom. sometimes your own enginuity just "feels better"

Yeah I have an old 29 sitting around that I was use as a QT but now I am think I might turn it into a fuge, biggest thing is I would have to drill that sump and run my return as an external to be able to fit the skimmer in it

ahh. I have had my fair share of sports cars. Slicks and skinney Cammed 5.0 Notch. 99FRC Corvette. 99 Trans Am with some stuff done just to name a few. But yes I ride the big ugly ass boat known as a busa now hahahaha. I love Slobras. They are gorgeous paper weights.
Are you adding more fish? I was planning on getting a Flame angel with my Blueface in my 75 for the time being. Good Idea?

Slobra huh never heard that before
by the time mine is done it will run low 9's in the 140's on street tires as in just low pro drag nittos and road race suspension.
As far as new fish goes I am thinking some combo of two these
Aus. Harly
Pakastian Butterfly
Saddleback Butterfly
Male Bluethroat
Juvi blueface or imperator
and yeah a flame should be fine with your blueface

Nothing wrong with a good cherry red stand/canopy...

Looks good so far. The black sand is definitely interesting. Hopefully the results are better then mine previous attempt where the sand turned a muted dark blue. Stocklist sounds awesome

I was yanking your chain on the slobra. They are gorgeous cars and cost so much to make them where you have yours.
That is a gorgeous fish list. I should have water in my 75 next weekend.
