Yep it's on wheels. Each wheel is rated for 1000 pounds and it has 6. When I do a water change once I take out the water I'm going to remove for the change I can move it and check all the equipment and fittings in the back. Works great. Too heavy to move before removing some water plus you...

I'll consider it if I can sell the tank. Until then I need both to keep it up & running :-) I'll keep you in mind if I get any reasonable offers on the tank

I am leaving the hobby and need to sell all of my aquarium stuff. Squidd helped me figure out everything I need. I would like to sell it all together but I will break out livestock, rock, and corals if someone only wants the tank and stand. Here is what I have: Tank & Equipment [hr] * 150...

google durso or stockman standpipes. They help with the flushing

I got mine from a store called Southern States Cooperative. Don't know if they are in GA though.

My 55 had a sticker on the bottom that had it. At one point. Eventually it was no longer readable. My 150 had it written in marker on one of the sides so cleaning obviously removed that.

Oh yeah, a sump is not needed for a CL.

A closed loop takes water from the main display and then pumps it back into the main display. The point Acrylic51 was making is that by going over the top you would have the same problems as some overflows. Most pumps have to have water in the pipes to work. This keeps the pump primed. You...

I have an Arctica Chiller & it works great. It does put out quite a bit of heat on it's own, but the noise level was a lot less than I expected. The fans on my MH unit are louder than the chiller.

The line from your pump going back into the display tank should also be at the waterline or at least go over the top of the tank. Then a hole drilled just below the waterline mark would keep you from overflowing your sump if you have a power outage. There are lots of good sump designs on here...

slowing the pump with the ball valve will put more strain on your pump, but it will likely not kill it. Do you have a durso or stockman standpipe on your overflow? If not that might help with the noise for when you have the ball valve opened up.
