Something I would of done differently is to ball valve each outlet of the manifold so I would not need to use the little valves from TLF. I know that Jim and Jeremy did it that way on their builds and I liked it a lot.

This is an excellent example of why I havn't built mine yet....I am waiting for you guys to figure it all out for me!!!

No problem Doug. I am glad that I could be of assistance. I am also glad that hear that you finally have joined the world of reefkeeping and added sand into your display

There is no name for it. I have many corals that do not have names. Sorry that I can not help I guess I am not one of the cool kids :lol:

 

[racerw]

Well I like your chalice fragment Unique

I like the "no name" chalices the best...............names seem to add $100 to the price hahahahaha. That's a killer piece Mark!

BTW, thanks for all the photo's, I'm off to the hardware store this morning!!

Just curious, that is all. No name = more affordable anyhow!

Especially since the majority of my stuff is "trade only"

Mainly looking at different Manifold set ups. I may end up running 2 pumps (3 if you count the CL)

The main return pump will run through the chiller back into the Display. The 2nd pump will feed, RDSB, frag tank, ca rx, po4 rx, and maybe skimmer. All though I have an extra drain from the tank that I may feed the skimmer with.

Since the RDSB, chiller and frag tank are going to sit on a stand next to the display I want as little exposed plumbing as possible.

Rob, here's a shot of my previous one.

I'm putting another together for the frag tank, but instead of capping the end of the last T, I've put in another valve with a JG fitting to feed my calcium reactor. I'll get a shot of that when I finish it.

I'm sure if Jim is around, he would chime in as well. Also, I put mine in the back to keep it out of the way, but to place it in the front would be much easier if you wanted to see the media tumbling.
