Update!

I have re made my sump... I just finished a sump for Canada's Corals and liked the white so much I decided to copy Dan's Idea.
Here is the sump I built for them.

Here is my new sump build.

Still not done....
Old sump

New sump

Also got the DOS and DDR set up.

I still have to re do the wiring to make it clean looking.. One day I will get to it....

The DDR came to me broken but I work with acrylic so was able to fix it.

Not Happy about that but what can you do no one has them in Canada that I could find.

Update on Coral I have started my Zoanthid garden per say...

And for good measure here is a FTS 2 weeks old but here it is.

Still working on fish will update that soon.

Haha yeah must be what you're calling a stock tank. That leads me to - what's a stock tank?

No, not that one, the glass tank with the lid with all the holes in it. I'm just wondering the purpose of all the holes? I'm snoopy like that.

Just looks like bracing to me.

The tank is all 1/2" Acrylic and has euro bracing. A little overkill but I used it for my lid's for the tank a lot easier to do this with..

Yeah, that looks nice. Did you build it yourself? It looks professionally done.

Why are you using the MarinePure stuff? Isn't this a reef tank?
