Finished the rough-in of the wall. I'll have to let things dry and sand it down a bit although I'm not too worried about doing a great job. I'll eventually have to replace this wall prior to selling so as long as I got things covered up it's good enough for me. I've left the baseboards on (hopeing to salvage them when I put the wall back to original form) and I've left that open. I intend to extend the floor of the cabinet right over top of those boards and into the fish room.

View from the fish room:



View from the living room. The stand and tank will cover approximately the square box I inserted into the photo.



I figure that I better let this dry and get it sanded before I bring in the water tubs to make the salt mixing station just to make sure I don't get any dust into the tanks so it looks like I get an evening or two of nothing to do except read other folks's articles on RAG.
