Hey Darren, nice design!

Do you already have the 10gal tank for the refugium? If not you can meet me at Big Al's in 1 hour.

They have an All-Glass 10gal tank with flourescent canopy at their Xmas sale price of $19.99!

I'm going this afternoon to buy one, as I'm going to setup a gravity fed refugium in the next couple weeks.

Anyone know where I can get it drilled with a small hole, and how to add a small (1/2") bulkhead?

Nice looking setup man! What size sump you gonna run? Will it be glass or acrylic?

Oh ya, what equipment are you putting under there? [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Acrylic sump.. Big enough to almost fill the 27x42 dimensions.. I'll leave enough room for the Ca reactor to fit under.. CO2 bottle wil be outside.. Skimmer will actually be in the sump. [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Working on the drawings for the sump now..

Will be running one mag18 teed off to run the returns(2 at one poiint) the skimmer and the feed for the Ca reactor. That will save me a fair bit on how many plugs I need.
