yeah the stand has the carbon fiber look in the front, why i like the stand is because of the door on the side for quick access .

i might just use the blue or maybe black background for it.

I've had so many skimmers and this one is the easiest i think to dial I've been running vinegar thru it for about three days now and the stuff you see in the collection cup is from the lower body of the skimmer............

yup a 6th stage Rodi i have it in my basement and i live on the second floor of a apartment building so i had to use a sump pump to get it up to the tank
hey Chinatown did you ever build a permanent stand or bracket for your led's sorry just saw your other post i see your busy....................
i've been working on one for my tank using two old legs from the jbj light's that i had before. i wanted to put it at the back of the tank and angle it down towards the rocks that way it doesn't block much light from the t5s dunno just and idea.

Why?

 

[ctxmonitor]

wow, nice setup! But i think you have too much rock in there.

 

[evoIX_Reefer]

imo, i was going to go with a 57 but that huge overflow is a huge turn off.
