Thanks Doug, no gut's no glory. That is why I work on top of high rise building as well I guess.

There will be no more upgrades for some time this one has really taken it out of me. Plus the wife would never go for it, I was lucky to be able to do this one.

So I got the tank and sump filled completely tonight, both skimmer's are running as well as the return pump. Have not kicked in the closed loop on the advise of Paul from Ocean Motion.

The problem I am seeing now is micro bubble's coming out of the returns into the tank. Any idea's out there of what might be the cause?

I don't know, I can't seem to find anything. Every thing look good in the sump but when it is coming out if the return it is full of micro bubble's
