Excellent, this is looking great

Now I have another question ...
Where is your sock going ? If I am seeing it right, you're planning on having it in the chamber after your drains. If this is correct, I see an issue
You want the water after the sock to go under the next wall ... otherwise it will just run past the sock

Am I missing something ?

And for cost savings, you could make the sock plate out of acrylic/plexi and cut the hole with a jigsaw, unless you're getting a smokin' deal on the glass
Let me know if you want more info about this

No Gregg you got it right, the sock is going to go inside the chamber after the pipes, it will look like this



Then the water will flow down through the sock and fill that chamber then go over the last wall into the skimmer chamber

Again you have it covered

Thanks for the clarity

Hey everyone, time for an update!! over the last day or so i have been slowly turning this



into this!!









I still have a ton more work to do on it to make it look perfect and fit the same way, i also need to try out a few things to make the foam look identical to the rocks then epoxy it all and cover it in sand but its getting there!

ohh and yesterday this showed up in the mail! its 10 feet of 3/4 inch braided cable wrap! now i can clean up my wiring and make it look pretty too!!



All clean!!

Looking good.

[molotov]

In all honesty it is coming along quite nicely.
