At last, my new aquarium has been set up! Well, it was up since mid 2011 but I am putting up this post to share how I designed and built the tank and sump, and how it is doing now.
It took me a while to settle down after moving to the new apartment. I have always wanted to get a bigger tank with proper cabinet. Most importantly, it has to please my wife's eyes and fit well with the home furnishings.
