    Help with sump design

    Ok, since I've decided to split the returns and so design A, do I need bubble traps on both sides, or just on the skimmer side? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Kessil lighting options

    When I was light shopping they were my hands down favorite without a doubt. The shimmer is unparalleled IMO and the color is perfect for my eye. I just couldn't bring myself to spend that much on lighting for a 40b since I would probably need 2 for full coverage. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Help with sump design

    Ok. I think that idea works for me. Don't know if I mentioned it, but a fella on RC suggesting feeding the fuge with a part of the sump return in the middle via a split in the return line. Thought that was a slick idea too Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Help with sump design

    To everyone: could I simply place another filter sock in the fuge area? Or are socks just a bad idea period?

    Help with sump design

    Which is better and why? Attached are 2 designs that I quickly sketched up. One is a basic left to right flow through design and the other splits the drains and has a centrally located return pump. Thanks for any insight you guys can provide! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Lumber has been purchased for the stand. Since the tank is just going in the garage I will simply be using the RC template that everyone and their mother uses. Won't be a work of art, but it'll be stout and serviceable. I'll post some pics when I wrap it up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Dipping toes into salty water...

    Anyone ever buy live rock off craigslist or anything? Is it best to avoid? I'm looking at getting some material from marco rock. If I'm looking for a fairly sparse aquascape, how many pounds of rock should I be looking at?

    Ok, update time... Skimmer has shipped and will arrive Wednesday next week and I just purchased lighting It's a 24" controllable Chinese fixture purchased through reef radiance. I wanted kessils, but this fixture was literally half the price of 2 360's. I'm sticking to my budget conscious...
