It looks like that small chamber is meant for the drain and then a skimmer, fuge, return or fuge, skimmer, return. just my observation. Gorgeous regardless

[dubs]

welcome back to the wild i likle the set up

 

[JonnyJ]

Custom Stand - w/ red mahogany stain.

Added Corner blocks on top and bottom of the stand for added stability. Skinned the back with 1/2 inch plywood and cut out two half circles for ventilation.

Thought i was finished and then Richie explained to me that i needed to skin the top of the stand and use styrofoam. So me an my girlfriends father went back to the garage and cut 3/4 inch plywood to the specs and added crown moldings around the front and sides so the tank could sit flush inside and hide the foam.

John when you said you were going to clean it, I didn't think you were going to make it brand new, good job, keep the pics coming.
