  • Quiet one 4000 return pump
  • Vertex IN-180 Skimmer
  • Vertex Rx-U 1.5 media reactor (also going to be purchasing another one shortly) one for GFO and one for carbon.

Looks great man! i like the idea hiding the wires in that bench, nicely done with the switch panel. Can't wait to see the tank grow, keep the updates coming!

Thanks! yeah wire management was a huge thing to me. I will also be using electrical raceway to finish hiding all the remaining exposed wiring such as the cords from the lights, tunze 6105 and 7096 that you can see on the wall behind the bench. Still lots of finishing and cleaning up to do.
