Right on DOugs thanks again. I broke the bottom off of it to try mounting it flat on a frag discs and am getting a whole bunch of new growth coming off it. Should be a really nice full piece in a year or so.

Probably less than that grows really fast for me.

Looking good Doug! Like already said, great PE.

Have you tried the Zeo PIF and/or Iron yet? I'm considering trying one or both to help with green hues.

I like when you talk reef-dirty Mindy

No, I havnt tried either one....Thought about trying the Iron ....but there is a little voice in the back of my head that says "dont feed the algae"...maybe Im just paranoid.....finally got rid of the vast majority of all the algaes in the display....except for some halimeda....but thats easy enough to pic out when it needs it, so I leave it.....


I must give props where they are due....Gary, our tank guy rocks....knocked out my sump in a time I probably shouldnt post....and left a bill Im extremely happy with.....Thanks Gary

So here it is, in all its shiny, clean, new glory.....54"l x 15 1/2"w x 15 1/2t..... 4" longer, 3 1/2" wider and 5" shorter than the old sump....my system volume will increase by 8 gallons and I will be able to work in the sump alot better.

Same layout as the last sump...left side fuge(thinking Im gonna put a deep sand bed in this one....nut sure...waffling big time), center is the return section and the right side is skimmer
