Time to panic, did I build it right? Will it leak?

Sideshot with current state, using white lights to better illuminate insides. I'll be covering the bottom half with acryl plate with custom graphics on it. Wondering about placement on Pump/res combo, should I close the "top" side of it too or not and make holes for reservoir/tubing on acryl?

Custom loop done before I found out the pump/res I had from barrows was DOA. Absolutely no cable management has been done at this point since I'm missing some fan splitters etc so just ignore the mess in the back

Attempted to fill the loop, and found out the Barrows pump is dead. No luck getting refund 6 months after the purchase from aliexpress seller. My own fault for not testing it immediately.

Actual green lights i'll probably be using. We'll see.

Corsair ML120 Pro RGB fans on 4x Alphacool crossflow rad. ML140 PRO RGB fans in the back. Sticker was off-center on one of the fans so removed it. Turned out it looks great without it, so i'll be peeling them all off.

Cablemod custom PRO modmesh cables! Just fantastic. Love them :) Waiting to get my UV strip to see how they'll glow under that.

RGB lit "magic potion" lamp i've been wondering about incorporating in the build in some form possibly. Thoughts, comments? The rgb lighting for this is in the base for it.

RBG backlit sideplates to cover the bottom half of the case and bit on left side. Thoughts?

Testing new sidepanels. Too bad i measured the left one wrong and it's colliding on top part of the case, and can't go all the way to left. Will either have to fix the case.. or the acryl to make it work.

Finally Finished!

So the Plan is to make Thermaltake Level 20 XT with Black/Green theme with custom loop and possibly UV lights to illuminate the loop. Theme is Green/Black and Samurais.

Currently I have Noctua D-15 there,but I already have parts for the custom liquid cooling and will be installing them properly soon.
Unfortunately week ago on 5.1.2019 as I was doing the build I found out that the pump/res combo i had from barrows was DOA.
Now i've got to buy proper D5 pump from reputable manufactorer instead to continue.
Sideplate with custom graphics and RGB illumination has been ordered for the case, and i'll be using it to cover the bottom half of case. Possibly covering top half too and make it kinda like bottom/top chambers separately, with holes for pump reservoir and tubing in it. Thoughts? Ideas?
