OHH YEAH its finialy gonna be done!!!
Well to start the tank display is 130 the sump is 20 and the refuge is 55
i got the tank afew months ago and started installing it
here is a lay out of the tanks flow for now
(img missing ill post later!)
water flows from the 150 down the drain pipe and into the 20 gallon sump. from there it is pumped at 30 gph into the 55 refuge then siphoned back into the sump
from there it makes its way to the ocean motion at 1000 gph and back into the tank
there is also a evaporative chiller that can be turned on when needed
expect more soon as i am building my canopy in a few days!
two shots. one of front one of tank room
yes i know there boxers on the floor.. they work great when you dont have a towel
ok this is a warning to any one who builds there own any thing!
knotice my canopy
do you see the problom?
maybe this will help
according to ice cap the bulb MUST BE FLISH WITH THE END CAP OR ELSE ARCING CAN HAPPEN!!! be careful this isnt "good eonugh" now i have to redo my canopy and mount he other 3 lights
i was expecting 880 wats of light but im only going to beable to have 770 watts
im really really really upset that i couldne tfit the last bulb...
heres some of the base rock. im still not done. i dont want hte base rock htat high since im gonna cover it in real LR
here is my refuge you can see my tunze skimer in there along with a smaller tank that maintains constant water lvl for the tunze. ( not needed but i wantd to use the tunze as a recirculating skimer instead of a flow throu so )
