Boy oh boy, there are some toys for sure & look page 3 already and still no tank yet. At this rate you will catch up to my 8'er thread in no time.

But seriously Adam, I don't think you need the MP40's so you should just donate them to your favorite charity........................ME!:biggri n:

Haha, well I was hoping at the very least, maybe I could stop by this week and we can toss them in some water and see what they can do. Are you going to be around?

After doing some research I've decided to try the new Tunze return pump.

Tunze Silence Water Pump Electronic - 1073.050




Today, aquarium engineering offers a number of universal pumps with various outputs and shapes. The new TUNZE Silence pump combine all the advances you may request of modern and powerful universal pump for saltwater and fresh-water aquariums.

In the production of these pumps, we have paid special attention to quality ensuring a low-maintenance permanent operation for many years. The electronic series of Tunze Silence water pumps allows the user to control the input voltage into the pump allowing an adjustable flow rate.

They have been built in keeping with the strictest international safety standards.

Features/Specifications

• Very silent running rotor with high-performance one-part magnet - all-ceramic bearing
• Very low energy consumption
• Adjustable output
• In-sump or inline operation
• 18V Flow Rate: 900 to 2,200 l/h (238.7 to 581 USgal./h)
• 24V Flow Rate: 1,100 to 3,000 l/h (290.5 to 475.5 USgal./h)
• 18V Max Head: 2.5 m (8.2ft)

Hopefully this will run as quiet as others claim.

Picked up the tank, sump and ato reservoir yesterday.
Dropped everything off at Grizz's place to begin the stand and dry build
One step closer.
Additionally I ordered the return pump, black sand and an additional apex power bar today.
Forgot to take pics

keep us posted on how quiet that pump is... I am looking to replace my eheim 1250 with something a little more powerful.
