Well a friend of mine started the plumbing last night on the tank. It will be overflowing on both ends, but returning on just one side. Will be using an ETS sump and EST skimmer with (2) Iwaki pumps. There will also be a 40w Aqua ******** UV sterilizer inline. Will also be adding a chiller to the system this summer. As for the lighting I will be using (3) 175w 10,000k metal halides and (2) VHO actinics with (2) fans. Was debating about just using (6) VHO's but I will like the "shimmer" effect halides give off on the water. Today just washing a lot of crushed coral and starting to add my R* O water. I am taking pics of the whole set-up process and will post them.
