Just a quick update... Thanks to SaraB I now have my system running with a Reeflo Barracuda as the main feed. All I can say is WOW. I've got it dialed almost all the way back and it still makes my overflow box work for it's money. The hissing sound from my Durso's is pretty nasty too. I'm either going to scale this thing back to a Dart for the return pump or have to do some more modifications to the stand pipes!

Dart or Snapper it up bro - save you energy $ too. There's a few different "types" of them floating around now too like the "GOLD" and something else... I gave up trying to follow and giving a spit long ago.

Glad it's working for you. I told you that's going to be a whole lotta pump for that system! I've still got that new Dart with your name on it here :spin3:

IceCap SLR. I just forgot to put them on before I took these pictures. They're all mounted up now and i'm about to post pictures of the tank with the canopy installed and the lights going. I'm programming my Aquatronica now.

Thanks to Helter Skilter dropping in for a minute, I now have the canopy up on the tank and working! I've got the Aquatronica loaded up and running the lighting now. Tomorrow i'll work on getting the network module set up and get the pumps, heaters, and skimmer on the controller as well. Here are some pics of the system up and running. It only took me a year to get here.

Thank you! It's finally starting to look like a reef tank! :lol2: Just in time too... My old tank is having issues due to a dying DSB.
