Here are some shots of the plumbing from tank to basement.



The overflow features a silent Stockman standpipe and is plumbed through the floor into the basement sump room making the reef virtually silent.





All the plumbing is one either 1" rigid IPEX pipe or braided 1" Flex Tubing. Ball valves are used to regulate flow to and from the system.



At the sump a "T" joint is used to split the flow. 60% goes into the main skimmer heating and Phosban chambers 40% goes into the fuge this ratio is regulated by another ball valve.

A Mag 9.5 return pump moves the water from the sump up about 7' to the dual adjustable returns.
