Wow, That's great! I just finished plumbing my 175 BF and it came out great. I know water changes are gonna suck so I plumbed a line out to my garage sink so I can dump water from the tank and pump new water back to save from hauling it. My 46 BF is still kicking too. The only draw back is the cost of live rock... Shesh! I'm going to start with 100 lbs then work into more as my wallet heals from all this damage. My pumps, filter and plumbing were 1000. Right now I just have plastic fish hanging with fishing line in there. I hope by November I'll be cycled and ready for fish.
Good luck and thanks for keeping us updated.
