nice set up, I've been looking to do something like what you have done with a seperate sump and refugium. How do you get water from the sump to the refugium and back.
 
this is very clean and organized. I like this set up alot. I like how youve done the refugium to the side like that. can you tell us how you did it?
 
Ricardo, The tank is awesome looking but the most impressive part is the level of organization and attention to detail you have obviously put in this tank.
I love the acrylic racks for the chemicals, I also like the sump area and even the top off water tank spigot protector, were did you get that tank? did it come with that protector?
Congratulations again!

Is a 5 1/2 gal glass tank with a bulk head in the right side that drain to the sump and gets water from Rio 600 and a Directional U-Tube it also have a full light cycle 16 hrs 20 watts compact and 8 hrs moonlight with a air stone 24 / 7
 
Where did you get that RO tank thats in the garage?

Also I don't get it with your plumbing.

The overflow from your tank goes to the wet dry.
There is a pump to the protein skimmer.
There is a pump going to the UV that returns to the refrigum then to the wet dry.
There is a pump that returns to the tank.

Did I get that right?
 
1-The tank is from tank depot and is a 75 gal

2-One mag 9.5 for the skimmer

3-that’s correct from the wet/dry goes to the UV, to the refugium and drain back to the wet/dry and back to main pump to the tank

loco you see i told you you tank was really nice and how clean is it some people will kill to have the tank doing so good and at the same time so clean
 
Welcome to the club Ricardo. I'm utterly impressed at your organization of your workspace with the tank. Neat reefers are a very rare find. Welcome again, and I'll probably see you at the frag swap! Thanks for posting!
