Wow. Just finished reading this entire thread. Fantastic tank, design, and equipment!
I've got a few quick questions. Sorry to re-ask these if I missed them, (I don't think I did though):
Now that you've removed the Barr skimmer, where are you running your ozone? If it's now going to the Deltec, have you noticed a difference in performance since doing so? Also, from the pictures, it looks like the entire top of the canopy is open. Is there a top you take off when you've taken top down pictures of your lighting? If it is open, is there a reason to do that way instead of having a wood top on it?
I can't wait to see this tank continue to mature.
