Well after days of scraping and scrubing i've cleaned the tank and sump, I've also removed the trim off the bottom of the tank. Once I've moved the tank next weekend I'll be giving it some fresh silicone and cleaning it again.

The sump needs a lot of work so i'll be removing the baffles and starting afresh with it.

I haven't had much progress recently but i new this was going to be a slow project. I have cut the wood for the stand and removed the silicone from sump and display tank. I haven't removed the silicone from inside the overflows yet, i've been putting that of because it's awkward to get my arms to the bottom of them.

wow! Can't believe thats the same tank! Looking great, hopefully I can remember this 'before and after' next time I see a nasty looking tank for sale (and forget about how much hard work it would be to get it looking that good :) )
