125 Ready for Fish...?

Finally after 6 months of planning, fabricating, searching for answers, equipment etc. It is up and running. At least full of sand, water and live rock. Now it can cycle in for a couple of months while I dial in the calcium reactor and test the effectiveness of the skimmer and pump which may have to be added to with a pump that cna handle the Beckett injector better. Seems like the Reef Dart is good for flow but not pressure.

The stand on the left needs doors and some finish work to make it look like it belongs in my office so that is an easy task to deal with. Now I can concentrate on stock list but may have to put up a guard to keep fish from jumping. I think a simmple solution would be a structure like wall to sit in the top of the trim around the perimeter of the tank up to the heigth of the light. Black plexiglass maybe? Anyone know of a good source?
