Here are some shots of the plumbing from tank to basement.



The overflow features a silent Stockman standpipe and is plumbed through the floor into the basement sump room making the reef virtually silent.





All the plumbing is one either 1" rigid IPEX pipe or braided 1" Flex Tubing. Ball valves are used to regulate flow to and from the system.



At the sump a "T" joint is used to split the flow. 60% goes into the main skimmer heating and Phosban chambers 40% goes into the fuge this ratio is regulated by another ball valve.

A Mag 9.5 return pump moves the water from the sump up about 7' to the dual adjustable returns.

What camera did you shoot the video with?

Also, since you're already defending the term "rimless" - "cube" implies 3 dimensions measurement the same. What you have there is a rectangular prism. It is a very nice rectangular prism though.

Just kidding BTW, don't worry about it. (Although .. MY tank is an "actual cube" at 30x30x30. So there! ). But, I don't features on glassbox design, so don't worry, you still win.

Ha,

Everyone is getting technical now eh.

There is something about "AJ's 47 gallon trimless rectanglular prism" that just doesn't have a ring to it.

Well I have been dosing vodka for almost a month now and I have also begun dosing Brightwell aquatics MicroBacter7. The sps frags are getting pretty colorful. Sorry for the poor quality photos. They're all cropped and digitally zoomed, I will take more with better a DSLR soon.










Also I also just added a few new zoa frags. Again sorry for the poor photos I will take better ones soon. Heres a look at some of the new rarer frags and their names.


Purple Death Paly


Single head of Hells Angels


Nuclear Blues


Radioactive Dragon Eye


Already had the next two but here's them with their names according to coralpedia.


Ked Red


Blue Hex and Safe Crackers
