A little update
Got the plumbing mocked up will be running 2 return pump 1 for emergency just in case and also for water changes I will be putting a fitting on the pump for a hose so I can use for sucking water out of the display and 1 fitting for a drain hose to run it outside..here's the main plumbing so far

I finished part of my ato container I just need to add lids put it on a slider in the stand and that part will be done I know its a slow build but I am just enjoying it and taking my time I am also coming up with ideas along the way thats why its taking longer..but its difficult watching all these builds with nice coral pics and fish wishing mine is filled already..also saving some money to get an ati hybrid but thats gonna take some time..
