Did you piece a lot of this together from tanks / parts you had around already?
It looks like you spent a good deal of time planning out this system.

What are your plans for the system in terms of corals? With a 175w 20,000K XM, I would think you would see some excellent color and growth out of a variety of corals.

I definitely like some of the things you've done -- DIY skimmer, DIY overflow.
 
the whole set up is pretty much diy. the overflows. skimmer, sump and fuge. yeah it did take me a while to figure everything out but it is all running smooth and won't overflow. took alot of trips to lowes to get everthing right.
