Hunggi74's 57g Illuminata

[hunggi74]

Hello everyone. I've had this tank sitting in my foyer for about two years now. I figure I'd better get it up and running before my infant boy is up and running. The other factor was $. Lots of $$$ which I wish I had. So I slowly got the equipment that I needed together and am now ready to start things up.
Water testing the tank. [/IMG]
My equipment list so far:
Illuminata 57 gallon tank
Ecosystems sump (thanks Frank)
Koralia Evolution 1050gph
Vortech MP10 (not the wireless model because ill never be able to afford two of those )
Cadlights Tia 1150 (on its way)
Eheim 1260 return pump
Maxspect Razor 160w 16000k LED
Reefkeeper Lite Plus
I built the stand out of 2x4 using a design off the web. I'm no carpenter that's for sure. Plumbed it with flexible hosing because I'm bound to make changes to the system. No valves, gates, because I'm no plumber either lol!
This is today with the lights set up and the tank full of freshwater to leak test everything.

I have 50lbs. of Marco rock in aRubbermaid with another 20lbs. of Fiji and Bali live rock curing all together so I've got another 3-4 weeks to set up the rest of the equipment.
