Thought I would update this as her birthday is Monday. Total volume is 4.5 gal.
Picture 5 shows how high the water level is, I think I will decrease the size of the pump a little. Hand sanding this thing was a bear but fun, I decided I would round over every edge and then hand sand and polish.
I hope she realizes how much has went into this little bity thing.

That's awesome, Chris. I think she's gonna love it. BTW, how did you hook up the return pump? I'm still trying to decide the best way to do that on mine.

I do have a dremel, router and polishing equipment as well. But this is for my biggest fan so if I had to do it with a toothbrush I would have.
I started with 60 grit, 80, 100, 150, 220, 320, 600, 1000, 1500, 2500, 3600 and finished with 12000 grit. Was really fun, when something I was working on just got too frustrating I would just walk over and grab the tank and start sanding.
