Subscribed, excited to see where this goes.
As for the hanging pulleys the interior component looks like Muntz metal which is 60% copper. I doubt any will chafe off but if your keeping all that poppin LPS like you used to I wouldn't take the risk.

I'd go for sailing blocks for over top of the tank - something like these: http://www.harken.com/productcategory.aspx?taxid=363

I bought stainless aircraft cable with crush fittings to suspend the lights, any objections to using it? Thanks for the help all! Last edited by Scythanith; 07-18-2013 at 01:04 AM.

Grouting is done, lights are rudimentarily up. I plan on cleaning up the wiring and probably raising the lights up to the main support beam to give me a little more head room when I raise the lights to the roof for maintenance. All I have to do is tighten up the aircraft cable between the lights and the beam.

Just bought the beauty on the right, a BK Double Cone 250 with RD speedy 3. Should be here next week!
 I am really having a dilemma right now on choosing a return pump and manifold pump. I was waiting for the Waveline DC12000 but I am getting a little scared of the rumours of spotty customer service and reports of the new DC6000 having flow issues. I really like the Abyzz pumps but they are a lot of cash. I need reliability, over anything else, it needs to be reliable. I am going for long stretches and I don't expect my wife to change pumps out for me. Can anyone rationalize one pump over another? Waveline, RD3's, Abyzz A400... Thanks!
