It looks so clean, looks like a great start is it 3 drains and 3 returns on your system?
I really do love the look of the tank and those lights are 75w LEDS?

Actually, it is 3 drains and 4 returns. One drain is spare only for water change. Yes, the lighting fixture is of totally 75W power consumption. I bought this in Taiwan.

nice setup

 

[NYreefNoob]

very nice and clean, question for you though, with having the returns so low have you water tested in case of power failure ? and any info on contacting on the light system ?

Impressive setup. What is the "RO" type fitting for on the returns ? I too would like contact info for Thortek. I did a google search but only came up with a damaged pdf file. Again great looking tank.

I installed a check valve in the return plumbing and have tested when turning off the power and everything is ok! Well, I decide to check the ""check valve" every month to ensure nothing is growing or stucking in the valve.This is to prevent it from any abnormal condition! As for the lighting fixture info., please check the PM!

That RO type is fitting for the input for the Ca reactor. As for the white RO pipe shown in the pic is for top-off of fresh water. The official website of ThorTek is: http://www.thortek.com.tw/index.php?lang=EN (English version)
