around there really
ok its still a project in the making but today i got everything hooked up on timers and i got it all cleaned up and arranged

so check this out im real proud of my two DRILLED in to each other sump for equipment on one side and the refuge on the other Sumps.

these pics show my 2 connected sumps and the 24 watt uv sterilizer i just got today

my god its like as soon as i added my uv sterilizer like 2 or 3 hours later i could see a difference in the cyano algae just disappearing or maybe its just me

any way if you followed my prior add about the riddle me this i got the leak stopped thank god and its full speed ahead

like said really proud of this set up, especially since the two 29 gl tanks on the bottom are drilled into each other using 1 in bulk head and 2 hole on each tank so a total of 4 bulk heads

let me know what u think about the pics and if you have any questions!!

thanks for your time and thoughts

looking good man, you went to alot of work and that plumbing there. Looks like a pretty darn good job.
 
in my prior post I ment to say that my tank isnt as half as nice as BCTs tank but it is coming along good now

Thanks for all the comments sorry for the bad pics

I took some better ones today I'll try and post them tomorrow
 
I got what you were saying bro. Yours is looking real good though. Theres alot of room for swimming and coral growth with that awesome aquascaping.
 
Lmao @ the last post

No I'm just trying to stop the refuge light from getting into the aquarium some how that's just what I came up with

Any suggestions on that would be appreciated
