Got all my equipment and starting to build...

[ghstrider]

hey guys, Ive bought all my equipment for my tank want to start the build. If anyone is local (kendall) and would like to get involved i could sure use the help and experience. I am picking up my stand and canopy (w/ lights installed) today at noon and have the rest of the items at home (skimmer, pumps, etc). I have a sump (20 g) built already but depending on the space in my stand i may be able to fit a 29g and do a larger sump/fuge and in that case i will remove the baffles from my sump and place them in the new sump (old sump would become a QT). I could really use some help in the area of plumbing the system correctly and effectively. This is my 1st major project and being a novice i am affraid of goofing it up. If anyone is local in the area and wants to help out please PM me or even better give me a shout at 3053429597.

thanks guys a ton...

Welcome to the club and to the realm of reefing!

Let me make a suggestion and tell you that if you can fit a larger sump under your tank, do it before everything gets rolling. Get the largest sump you can fit. It's a PITA to replace a sump once the tank is setup, and you may have to settle for a smaller one later to fit it between doors or something like that.

Good luck and let us know how it's all going
