Good to see you have stuck with it and let nature run her course instead of rushing things. Looks like it will give you many years of enjoyment.

Looks fantastic! I like the idea of the tank beside the work area.

Don't forget to "blackout" the top and face of your overflow......

It's a potential flood hazard. Congrats on getting the 55 dialed in lg.....
