BUILDING A DREAM....SPS Dominated Tank build

Thanks a lot for the pointers. Bubbles are a concern for me. Infact I was planning to keep the outlet near the return pump so that the mulm can be pumped back into the DT...hmm need to rethink that.

I may have mis-led you. The drain can be near the return pump area for the reason you stated (for mulm) but don't have it right next to the return pump inlet. This old pic shows you

Nice Nice and more nice!! I like the cabinet!!! The red colour reminds me of EdReefs cabinet a few years ago.

How are the doors going to be attached and what is at the top there? A platform?

Hi Andrew...
Thanks a lot buddy. I'm super excited my vision is coming together. The "red n white" combo was sure Chinese inspired and also hope it does bring good fortune and purity to this endeavor.
As for the doors it will be hinge loaded.
And the tank will be on the red "pedestal" :D
Any suggestions for me?

Looking good, the red and white should match the BK skimmer nicely too.

Hi Brett,
Glad ya like the cabinet :)
Ayeeee...so you suggest a BK skimmer eh? I already have a Skimz 252 external skimmer. But im still undecided on whether I should I start with a new skimmer or test the Skimz out in my system and see how it performs. If not satisfactory il need to dig deeper into my pockets. :crazy1:
The 252 is a big boy, need to see if I can fit it in available space in-sump or cabinet. :uhoh2:
