Madmak's 200G Reef Build

The inside of the overflow is simply 3 90s threaded in to the bulkheads, 2 pointing down and the emergency pointing up. I painted these fitting black.

Very nice, this is what I want to do with my 8' - 300gal. Complete coast to coastand thinking of doing 2 set of 3 drains like yours.

How is that Reeflo pump working out for you? Mine is ridiculously noisy however they are replacing it so just curious as to how loud they should actually be.

Grizz, they don't recommend double Bean Animal overflows as its hard to balance them to make them perfectly quiet.

See the big thread on RC.

Great looking build! Could you post more regarding your closed loop? I like the manifold there. Looks wikid. How was it put together?

Did you snag that pump of a gentleman in Lake Bonavista? I took that guys sump off him, and was going to get the pump a couple days later, but it went missing on me!! haha
