Thanks all!! I am excited to get this up and running. I was thinking of selling the old RSM250 or I may keep it for a pred tank too.. haha see what the wife says.

Nice tank man, can't wait to see it running and progression of growth on your sps. Also I think you made a good decision on the lights, t5 give great colour to sps and later on if you wanted a bit of pop and shimmer some blue stunner LEDs strips would fit snug in that fixture...

I have not seen the stunner strips in person. If I was going to get them, I think it would be the Royal blues. I also think this will still provide a simmer on the water? How well do these little guys work?

I have added 2 panorama blue led strips to my nano and like the colour... The stunner strips are a lot more thinner which can add on to your t5 unit providing stealth and a clean look. I have not tested the stunner strips so I can't comment but I am sure you tube has some videos showing them over a tank.
I think blue led strips give a nice addition to the tank and extra pop to the corals. I actually enjoy viewing my tank at dawn and dusk rather when all the lights are on... The led I use have great coverage although the panorama are bulky which is why I suggested the stunner.

Well I think that might be a good way to go. I was also looking at the ReefBrite Tech LED - http://www.reefbrite.com/reefbrite-tech-led/

A picture update.

I am now finished the tank plumbing and hooked up the return pump. Took me some time but I think it looks good and will work great. The return seems to have no leaks so that is good. Got to test my skimmer out a bit as well.

Now to fill it with water and get some rock from the old tank in there.

I have a small flatworm outbreak so I was thinking I would dip the rocks in flatworm exit in a bin before they do into the new tank and get ready to rockscape.

Picture update needs pictures!

EDIT: Guess I needed to shut my yap and wait for you to upload them haha

haha that's ok! I didn't upload them the first time :razz:

Looking good buddy if you haven't already put extentions on your drains so they make it to the bottom of the drain chamber this will keep stuff from settling down there :)

How's the sump treating you ?:)

Cheers buddy

Hey buddy! Everything is almost done! Thanks for the tip on the return. I added those after the picture. Sump is awesome and so is the tank. You guys did an awesome job and I always tell everyone that haha :)

I will have rock in it very soon!
