Show me your 75!

I just upgraded from a 29 gallon to 75R and I'm curious to see some other set ups. Show me some pics and tell me a little bit about it as far as equipment. I'm doing this on a budget so I just transfered all my equipment from my 29. So I'm probably going to get some more equipment for christmas just need to know what to get first. I'd also like to see your rockwork. So let's see em.

75 gal oceanic diy reef ready, single overflow, pvc return over the top with syphon break.
sump is a diy 20 gal long, with a rl100 skimmer, fuge in center return on right.
each section of the sump only has one baffle, total 2 all together. (no bubbles) (no updated pic)
I used acrylic from homedepot to make my baffles (lexan)
currently running Hagon glo 2x54w t5ho fixture with single reflector. future upgrade to diy led coming soon.
just need to sell my 2x250 DE MH lights. Tank is controlled by a reefkeeper 1 for timers and heat and chiller control as well as lights.
I run chaeto in the sump and the sump light is on a reverse light schedule. (comes on when tank lights go out)
I am also dripping kalk with a MRC magnetic kalkwasser stirrer.

Very nice Nemo. What kind of flow are using? Just the return or return plus powerhead?
