Sure, I will shoot them in the morning.. Theres not much to see.. All my equipment is external except the return pump. I also have a plastic container in there thats full of chaeto. The reason being that I have lots of churning water that wants to break the chaeto ball apart. I do have lots of plumbing though.. LOL Around $450 dollars worth.

Dude.. Im so sorry for not getting those pictures.. I have been laid up, I hurt my back a few weeks ago and it has gotten worse in the last few days.. I spent about 6 hours in the ER today. I got up this morning and could barely walk. I will try and get them tomorrow pending Im able to bend over enough to sit down in the floor to take pictures..
I snagged my Actinic VHO's tuesday and got them over the tank. I have ran just Halides for a few years and forgot how cool everything looks with actinics for dawn/dusk. I'll try and get some pictures it the tank with only the actinics on also, just for the cool factor of everything glowing under them.
It seems that I have a bit of water leaking from under one of the injector bulkhead. They are threaded into the actual box so there is no gasket or nut to tighten the bulkhead down.. I suppose over the years it has worked loose a hair, so Im going to either toss a gasket and nut on the bottom threads( If I can get my arm and hand into the body well enough to get it on there or use Weld On and run it around the top of the bulkhead where it meets the box to seal it up that way. Would probably be 10 times easier anyways..
