Sump built for a King

[Bricky]

Just thought I would share some more fine work by Jason. He built me a pretty sweet setup for my new tank that is coming this week.

Dimensions are 61"x24"x22". He also built a throne for the King. How appropriate. I can't wait to see this thing filled with water, and I'll be sharing more pictures soon.

Nope. That would be a Bubble King Skimmer. It's like the Ferrari of skimmers.

I'm hoping that this skimmer will handle the 900 gallons of total water that I'll be running through the system. What do you think?

I would run twin Red Sea Berlin skimmers. You could then do the mazzai injector mod then you would really be cookin'! J

I'm no skimmer whisperer, but that sounds like it would be overkill on the 800 gallons of water I'll have in my system.

Great looking, clean built sump. The "throne" looks pretty trick too.

LOL! You want em....I got em. Kinda like a dual exhaust or twin turbo...only better..or something

I can't believe people haven't been knocking your door down to get them Cy.

Jason built the throne from 1/2" material like the sump itself, so I think it will have a long reign as the King.

I've added some pieces of equipment and done some more plumbing. Thought I would add some more pictures.

do you have a separate refugium?

 

[Bricky]

I have four. One is a macro style, deep sand bed, and the top ones will be zonal refugiums. One for moderate flow and the other for slow flow.

I have the top tanks and the deep sand bed covered to limit the amount of light.

I've got the macro tank lit by two 65watt pc's. Both bulbs are Current twin bulbs that are a mix of 10k and 6500k.

 

[ret25yo]

I'm just jealous ... and anxious for Jason to finish my tank...lol Did he do your stand or no?

 

[Bricky]

Nope. I built it myself.

Only 4 refugiums Matt????? And you call yourself a reefkeeper????
