    well the hanging and framing is done and the tank has the plastic off for the first time! I do have to get some novus because I have a few little scratches to deal with but that stuff works like a charm.... It is from the plastic and the fine dust that has been in the air. I am recovering of...

    Tunze Wavebox and AGA 180 with standard overflows

    I have one for my 270 gallo (72*36*24) and I think it will be ok. I had a home made surge tank on a 180 before and loved the flow but hated the fact that is was not 100% reliable. For this tank I have a Iwaki 100RLT with 4 penductors, a wave box, twin 6100 streams and 3 6080's.

    48*30*18 dula flow sump

    It is the same one. The last baffles were 4" to tall and had to be modified. It took some time to do it but they did a nice job. To date this is the most intricate sump the LFS I use has ordered. The owner thinks I have real issues :D but understands the concept and thinks it makes a lot of...

    48*30*18 dula flow sump

    The Sump was designed to act as two sumps that dump into a common return chamber. There are 4 1.5 inch bulkhead holes drilled in removable covers so that I can attach true union ball valves and controll the flow speed on each side. One side has a large chamber for my Zeovit reactor and the other...

    New Skimmer

    MOjo, Most impressive! You amaze me man. You actually inspired my tank without reallyknowing it :D I love that 90 degree look you have so that is why I am setting my 270 up to be edge on viewable as well as frontal traditional :D

    It is true LOL I had to create a space for the tank because it is so big and too big fro the upstairs. I am looking forward though to getting into the plumbing and things like that that are more related to getting going. But I also need to have thisn look just like I want it too LOL
