hum what to do, i have a budget in mind so i cant go to crazy. thats the reason for wanting to use the pumps i have and buying one more. mag 7 and 18 and buying ampmaster3000. But now i dont know what to do. Ok lets open this up a bit more. 2500 dollers to spend not including lighting. How would you go about it. Keep in mind the pumps i have. oh yeah and 800 for the tank off of that so about. 1700 give or take a bit.

Ok here we go..how to spend your money :lol:

you can go with either the Ampmaster or the Sequence Reeflo Dart Pump which I think was selling for 100$ below Distributor cost 2-3 weeks ago.

For your 5 ' skimmer well like mentioned change the pump as soon as you can I think the New Pressure rated PCX55(MAK) will do a great job.

For the sump return use the pump you have already.

This is just options and suggestions nothing more.

Yea I had a budget in mind when I was setting up my tank room and It was all too easy to double the budget. :lol:
I would pad your estimate by 50% or so.

yeah the so called budget. But im sure ill go over but i always round up :biggrin: . So back to teh original question if i use the mag 18 to supply the return from the sump to the tank and fuge, still where should i place all the holes for the oceanmotions and return.
