The Holiday 180 Gallon

Just wanted to post a picture of my 180 gallon setup. I have had this up for a week now with some new steps for me and a transfer of my 135 system. I have been checking the parameters all week and with some water, Rock and sand from my old tank, I have no noticeable change. I want to get my fish from the hospital to the new "ocean" soon. Just curious as to your thoughts.
PH=8.2
Ammonia=.5-1 ppm
Nitrites=0 ppm
KH=179 ppm
salinity=1.023 at 70* (and I will get a pair of heaters before the move)
Here is my tank so far...

All the rock is from the old tank, and 2/3 or so are from the old tank, the rest is new. I did rinse the old sand and the rock in some of the old water, I made about 150 gallons of new salt and RO/DI. Then filled the rest with old water.

Looks great! I really like the Ancor. Really adds a unique touch! Can't wait to see the progress

I had to give the tank a taste of my past, time in the US Canoe Club. It was fun to make with the DIY live rock.
