i think this is a whole nother thread topic. although my wife is wonderful and did give me permission to build the big tank sometimes she feels a bit slighted and she won't go to the club meetings with me anymore, no matter how much alcohol i let her have. actually our new venue for the meeting is the first one that has a bar. and i think she will go to the BBQ next month. Anthony Calfo is coming.

sheetrock was cutout then bulks were installed. ball and gates valves were used throughtout the plumbing for fine tuning.
intake and outlet for chiller with bulks

refugium is the last set of plumbing needed to be done after that i'm a happy camper :eek1:

sorry Bax, fat chance. No pill will fix this. I know, I have tried! :lol:
And Bart, I love seeing those $2 gate valves. Warms my heart.
i'm beyond the pill, trying something new...shock therapy works pretty good
oh $2 gates not from spears :eek1:

Why does this disease never leave me !
Why does this disease never leave me !
The fact that i think about building a new home just to have a in wall tank with fish room is crazy..... will it happen? Yes, most likely it will. I have the tank sitting in my garage awaiting the new house. It is a true sickness of perfectionists and problem solvers.... which is me. Why me though?
Plumbing is beautiful.... almost as much as the Tank is beautiful !

Incredible tank!!
I have a few questions, how does the water flow in your three tier system. Does it flow from the top one to the middle one and then to the bottom one via overflow. Or are they each connected to the main sump, where they receive water from and then return it back.
I am also assuming that you have practiced cutting the power and checked for flodding right?
Looking amazing,
