Its wet!
Took just about the better part of 2 and a half days to fill but its done now, rock, sand and salt are in a mixed now is the long wait for the cycle to take place and do its thing.

Below are some pictures of it up and running now, I still have to do some tweaks i had a wicked micro bubble issue but that was solved ripped apart the plumbing and reversed the bulkhead and gave it a good tighten and no more micros.

I got the Reefkeeper lite hooked up but right now my second power bar seems to be not working waiting to hear from Digital aquatics on this one, i also still have to think of how i am going to skin the stand.

i would suggest opening the intake valve all the way, instead of having it 1/4 closed because it will put less stress on the pump. Just use the output valve to adjust.
