She's great, excited to see our fish in there. 
Goal is to get Hydra 52's up in the next couple days. I'll probably add salt and start heating soon.
So the Gyre XF -280 is interesting. It really does push the flow across 8 ft. I really want a second one now. Maybe next Black Friday...
Build isn't complete by any means, but soon more than functional!

So true!
So true!
Once it gets skinned, Apex hooked up, with the auto top-off and mixing station good to go. Back to regular hobby mode and enjoy the fish.
How about crazy maniacal mode to tinkering mode?

Nah, just single without a booster. Was dealing with other stuff, going to revamp the rodi setup in the future.
I did setup a heated bucket for the pretube. Going to change the sediment filter again today. I figure, should be close to done by Wed evening. I started a tank watching thread in the main reef section for the fill.

You're making me jealous. I wish I could print my own parts.

The price of 3D printers has really dropped, if you can afford to reef, you can easily 3d print!

Printed a better final version, smoother snug like standard plumbing.
AND
Just little water needed to clear the overflow and fill the sump. Tomorrow mid by day should be heated, salinity adjusted and ready to start transferring.

Maybe I misunderstood, but are you planning to get the salinity adjusted and then transfer fish in the same day? I would transfer some dirty media into sump along with some dirty water, let it fester for a week, and then do the transfer using as much of your original tank water as possible. It just makes me nervous to do it too quick. Anyway, just my opinion.

I already have everything cycled. Zero sand. Everthing in good condition. Still going to acclimate just because IO vs Reef Crystal's.
The live rock from the other tank, zero die off equals zero cycle... Yes. I'm that crazy. Well not really, already moved everything 1000 miles in a cooler... Theory is sound.

So the salinity is going to be spot on match after a little more water is added.
Bigger issue is the temp. I'm at 74.5 with a couple heaters. Heating that huge mass of water is slow. House temp is about 71.
So, no half measures.
So I added more heaters... Terminator approves of the extra energy after photo bombing.
