Show more pics! What fish do you have?

Great idea!!! How about a close up on the tank and what's in it

 

[bluetangclan]

Just finish the build a couple of days ago. So far I only have live rocks and letting the water cycle before putting any fishes. I will post more pics then......

What about under the tank and above let's see the workings of the tank. Good job.

Wow, looks great!

 

[bluetangclan]

Thanks! Here are more pics....

The sump is still a work in progress. I originally wanted the skimmer on the right chamber but it wont fit so right now its in the middle along with the pump. I will probably use the right chamber as a refugium. Let me know how I can improve on it.....

Th first section you see in the pic is the return pump section correct? If so, you could do a small refuge in the section on the far right. Usually people do skimmer section, then refuge, then return.

 

[bluetangclan]

The first section on the left is coming from the overflow. It then flows to the middle which contains the skimmer and return pump. The skimmer can only fit in the middle.

 

[rickross23]

So the third section is not in use?

 

[bluetangclan]

Correct. I initially had the return pump there but had extra sand so i just dumped it in and moved the pump to the middle

 

[mr. limpid]

I see a problem. The sand is blocking flow from middle to third chamber, which will then cause stagnate water to sit there. My suggestion is to use this area as a refug. Remove the sand so water can flow add LR and Macro (light for macro) with a small pump to pump the water back into middle section.
