And finally, a few pictures of the "finally finished" sump/refugium. Total volume should be about 150 gallons when filled.

No, Look, if the tank is turned on its side, it will fit right through the door. I like how you had it built so it will not be a hassle to work in, is it only 20 or so inches deep? WOW thats a huge refuge!

OMG!! That stands gotta be 4' + high. Break out the snorkel gear baby!! What a beauty. Love 'My Way' s track light idea. I've seen that in hydroponics, and its great for even growth on plants. Might be just the trick for SPS too!

Here is a diagram of the returns for the tank. Closed loop is powered by a Blue Line 100 and the other two returns are from Turbo Sea 1740's.

Here are a few shots of the tank as the plumbing was getting finished up. There are a few things which still need to be plumbed in before it is ready for delivery.
