Well I think that might be a good way to go. I was also looking at the ReefBrite Tech LED - http://www.reefbrite.com/reefbrite-tech-led/

A picture update.

I am now finished the tank plumbing and hooked up the return pump. Took me some time but I think it looks good and will work great. The return seems to have no leaks so that is good. Got to test my skimmer out a bit as well.

Now to fill it with water and get some rock from the old tank in there.

I have a small flatworm outbreak so I was thinking I would dip the rocks in flatworm exit in a bin before they do into the new tank and get ready to rockscape.

Looking good buddy if you haven't already put extentions on your drains so they make it to the bottom of the drain chamber this will keep stuff from settling down there

How's the sump treating you ?

Cheers buddy

Hey buddy! Everything is almost done! Thanks for the tip on the return. I added those after the picture. Sump is awesome and so is the tank. You guys did an awesome job and I always tell everyone that haha

I will have rock in it very soon!

Hey all

Some updates. So over the past week I started to transfer rock down to my new tank. I dipped the rock in flatworm exit and Coral RX just to make sure I didnt bring any new pests over. I did have a small flat worm outbreak so this is something I needed to do.

I think the rock work looks pretty good so far. I need to add a bit more just around the back I think.
