Dats gonna be saweeeeet guys. I would consider not using the bioballs... unless you religiously clean them they can become a nitrate factory. If the sump is noisy there are other ways of dampening the sound...sponges,filter sock,etc...something easy to remove and clean. Or it may be a design flaw with the plumbing or sump layout that is causing the noise. Is it a herbie style drain,....durso?

That's a nice setup you got! The pictures the previous owner had posted were very stunning. I love the peninsula tank look

Thanks Laurie.....I appreciate the kind words. We love the tank.....I think we need to do a new build some time in 2011....as this one seems so small now.
