Finally got something done.
« on: January 09, 2009, 23:52:18 »
Well I spent the day re-plumbing the sump and finishing the canopy.  Now with the canopy in place I got a chance to put all my lights in place.  Also picked up a hammer coral. ;D

Next on the list is a ATO, and remodel another room so I can upgrade to a bigger tank. ;D

Thanks

100 lbs between the tank and sump.  I wish my sump looked as good as those that I have made for others.  I just haven't had time to build my own acrylic one yet.

Have you tested it against a power outage?

Yep, I turn off the pump and powerheads when I feed.  No wet floor. ;D  Its the same basic design as when I bought the tank, I just changed out the return plumbing.  It had spaflex hose.  I added the refugium section and changed the plumbing over to PVC with ball valves so I can controll flow.

BTW where do I find the directions to hook up that valve you gave me?  I know you told me but I forgot :'(
