No that is where the overflow's are going to run into. Going to fill it with LR Rubble, the water will then run over baffle into refugium, then into skimmer 1, then into skimmer 2, then into dual phosban compartment & finally into return compartment that I think will have some more LR. Flow is clockwise.

not sure yet, might do a dosing set-up down the road. I also have to find a place to put the 3' 30W UV I got with the tank. In the fisrt 6" of the stand from the left I am building a water proof electrical panel with all my shut off switch's and what not's.




Also have not decided if the pump is going to sit the way it is in the previous pic or turn it 90 degree's like this.

It will be a sweet set-up if it all works out the way I have it planned. Going from a 6' 155gal to this can't wait until it's done.

Nothing new to report, I have to get the bulk heads in so I can figure out the plumbing. Drill a hole in the sump for the retun. As soon as I get more done I will post some pic's.

REALLY NEED MY 155 BOW FRONT TO SELL SO I CAN FINISH THIS ONE AND GET IT RUNNING
