Greg's 75g

Forgot to mention I changed the non-surge outlet in post 30 ( bottom right of pic ) with another surge duplex.
This is because I have decided to get a Reefkeeper Elite. I'm waiting on a package price. I'll run the Lite on the QT and won't need a cheap surge/powerbar.
Once I started adding up all the goodies that will be plugged in, it only made sense to go with the Elite so I may have everything on the controller ( minus the backup heaters and Vortechs ). This way, when it fails, EVERYTHING will fail and I won't have to try to figure out what caused the crash

Things look nice and clean great work. Really love the army of heaters in the baffled area that's a great idea and use of space.

So weird looking through the bottom of the tank into the sump!

Thanks. I saw lots of good ideas on the web, but never saw verticle heaters. I don't want them to eventually leak. They'll never be dry and the accessory pump will keep them active during WC. You'll see when I'm done.
The heaters are;
1-3-5 200w on the Reefkeeper
2-4 250w on the Ranco
Can't wait to get water running.
And, ya, I know what you meant, but HELLO, there is no sump under the stand. It has helped with the plumbing not having styro blocking my view.
No bare bottom here either, so no worries about weird reflections.
I don't know what I'll do with the cabinet space, besides food and salt buckets. I have enough space under the 20QT for all the test gear and so on. Maybe I should set up a curing tank, or better yet, a FRAG tank. Oooooo, the wife will hate that little money pit

I run two heaters on my 165g. Not sure why so many heaters are in your sump. That's waaaaay overkill.

There is redundancy here, yes, but I'm not running them all, just the 200 watters.
The 2 x 250w heaters are backups on a Ranco, just in case the main heater circuit craps out due to either a Reefkeeper failure, or a Heater failure tripping the GFCI.
As for the 3 x 200w heaters; I prefer smaller heaters rather than large ones that can go haywire and cook things. I feel 3 x 150w just wouldn't cut it as it can sometimes hit 68F in our Livingroom.

Just ordered the Reefkeeper Elite, some switches and a Hub. I received a decent offer from a member for used, but for the cost difference, new it is.
Time to get some more plumbing done.
