 Unstraping the tank  lowering the tank  Getting Ready for the big lift!!   Sand castle inside the tank!!

Intake for one close loop  This is one pump for the Close Loop, mounted to the bottom of the stand!  Me priming the close loop!  Full of water!  Wall built around!  Drywalled!!  This is as far as I am atm....will post more pics when I get more done!!

You know I would seriously consider plumbing that closed loop pump with hard plumbing. Maybe go with a union valve to make servicing easier. That vinyl tubing gets brittle over time and holy cow would you have a mess if it decided to let go.
Other wise it looks good. I have a 230g glass tank and I know that if I ever have to move it I better not ask the same guys to help me move as that helped get it in my house and up on the stand. They are probably still recovering.

Well it's your tank and your floor but I do know if it was me I would seriously think about changing pumps. The idea of a closed loop is for flow and although that pump is only doing 1200gph for just about the same price you could put on a Sequence Dart, seriously up your flow and hard plumb it in. JMO and no insult intented. I know that we all do things different and that every tank is different as far as what we want to keep in it. I would just be nervous of that vinyl tubing is all.

I chose these pumps because I got 3 for the price of one, and I am putting educators on my close loop, which means i needed pressure rated pumps.
But I totally understand what your saying and I will prob upgrade in the future!!
