The new 120....***UPDATED*** Mixing Station***
Hey Guys.........
The new 120 is here and I thought I would share.....  Tank, Stand and sump  This 48x24x24 will have 2 Mak 4's running the show. One for the sump, That will enter the tank via two 3/4 Sea Swirls and one will be a closed loop with a Super Squirt. You can see 2 drains in the back for the closed loop. Each of the 3 strainers drain into 2 lines then to one pump this will cut down on the velocity of the water being sucked. 4 returns for this 2 centre at the back and 2 in the rocks. The ones in the rocks will be split with Loc Line. A 36gal sump with 2 100 micron bags. Why 2???? The flow will be split into 2 bags for ease of change. I figer one will have to be changed often but 2, 1/2 the time. There is a Stockman pipe(Aquasilencer) in the over flow I take it out for a laugh it looks just like an Austin Powers ***** pump.....  You should have seen the neighbors faces......   The sump  Ill post more when I can......

Looks great.
Can't wait to see it in action.There is an eerie ghost in the tank, though, who looks as if he's trying to take your picture. I hope you're OK with that (seems like a reasonably benign ghost .. perhaps a former paparazzi)
