+1 with Neal. The sum/fuge came out real nice. Look at all that room for chaeto and pod growth, wow! Are you still keeping the lobster in the fuge?

 

[shecter]

yea its his little kingdom down there. i really want to find some animals to put with him.

 

[BubbaBoBobBrain]

Good luck finding something he wont eat, lol. How are the new corals looking? So far all the ones I got online are looking great.

i was going for a non traditional sump design. i wanted it simple with alot of room for my lobster. i made a inlet box that fit my skimmer pump and outlet as well as my heater, reactor pump, and inlet tube from the main tank. then did the same for the return pump. i notched the acrylic on the outer edges so the water flows across the fuge and into the return. if you have any questions just let me know.
