The small holes is for water to flow through to the biological fluidizing compartment, and the transparent pipe is for overflow to the next compartment in the event of choking.

And finally the connector for linking up all the sump
 
Great looking setup. I was looking at your drawings and I didn't see anything about your electrical layout and systems support? What are you planning on using the Neptune for? How do you plan on laying the neptune out for the systems? Is it only going to control the DT and Sump? Or will it have a use for the whole ecosystem?

Havent decided yet for the layout for the Apex, but it will be mainly for the control of the lighting i guess. There is a dedicated ELCB cater for the fish room, maybe i will update on that a little bit later.
 
Nice build!
I'm a little lost when looking at the tank filling half of the opening versus your designers rendering showing the tank filling the opening.

Great job, and having a floor drain in the fish room is a great plus!

Are you going to black out the sides of the tank, so you can't look into the fish room from the front?

Good luck, I'll be tagging along.
 
Amazing tank !! Can´t wait to see new updates.

Regarding the Biological filtration, it´s old school. It works, but not as new biomedia such as siporax, cermedia Marine Pure or Seachem Matrix just to name a few.
Just an idea ...
 
With names like Abyzz, Apex, and Vortech, you're really serious huh?
I love those tank dimensions. I've always liked the look of a 3D pond style instead of one long streeeetch.
This will be almost the same as my next DT upgrade. Only my sump will go in the basement, and hold about 450 gallons.:deadhorse:
Daniel. :wildone:
P.S. Where are you located, that you have those plugs on the Apex EB6?
