This 135G w/ 40G sump is replacing my 30G. This system will be plumbing to an existing 75G w/ 20G sump for convenient maintenance (Auto top off water, dosing and water change). Wow, this tank makes the 75G looks so small.

Nice.
Big tank are great until things go wrong lilke algae outbreak, fllaworm...etc
Hope for a smooth transfer
 
Looks great! What are you going to keep in it with this one. If I have two tanks, I would do a softies and anemones and the other full blown SPS and LPS.
 
ive seen some awesome softie tanks. very bright if done right. But if I had 2 tanks, I would probably have a reef and a FOWLR. Some of the fish that aren't reef safe are the best looking.
 
Can you post some pics of the overflow? I am thinking of ordering one of their tanks and wanted to see it up close

I am thinking keeping SPS, LPS, clams with couple of BTAs. Most stuff will be from an existing 75G.

This tank is "PRO" version has center overflow with 2 drains and 2 returns. New tank overflow looks like below:
