Wow, really beautiful, that's some kinda awesome stand...Welcome to the site!
It looks pretty new...Is this your first SW tank? What type of fish are you going for?
Just in case this is your first time around...You need more rock in there, and some power heads from what I can tell from the picture. The spray bars are great if you are going with delicate fish like seahorses. Once you put in more rock, you will need the power heads to blow them off and keep them clean. The rock and the wave are the most important items in a SW tank. Judging from your FW tank you already know quite a bit on the very basics of cycling and such.
I sort of don't undestand the little refrigerator. I'm impressed that you need only one shelf for your water tests and it's well hidden. LOL..I have three shelves of fish stuff next to my tank, a bucket of fish tank extras under the kitchen sink, and in my bedroom shelf that I dig into often, and the garage is full of odds and ends. My 37g water changing tub is in a corner of my kitchen....I have a fish house and I live with them, not the other way around.
First SW tank, 4 months old, fish only. Dogface, Foxface, 2 MGS clowns, blue jaw and niger triggers so far. Thinking a pink tail trigger and then finish with some sort of angel by the end of the year.
Have good movement on top with the power head and dual canisters (no spray bar). Have 200lbs of rock and thought that was enough until I put it in the tank and it looked empty. Wife did not want fish food in her freezer so bought the fridge and built the cabnet.
I've had fresh water tanks for a while (115 in family room and 55 in bedroom)
