:smokin: very nice!

Very nice, the only thing i have to ask is why do people keep liverock in their sumps? honestly its all int he same water, so why not just throw it into your display? i know that uglier pieces or rubble is thrown into refugiums for the purpose of hiding the ugly rock but still having the biological benefits. Just my 2 cents

To answer your ?
When we got the rock home we found there were tons and I mean a lot of big bristle worms in it so we put it there for the time being.

I really like the aquascaping!

 

[doomicon]

That is a sweet setup. I like the progression from the Emperorer 400 hang on filters, to the overflow. I agree with alizarin, the aquascaping is nice!

Where did you get the sump? Did you pick it up, or DIY it?

nice set-up

The fuge was custom built for me to maximize the water volume,
So I guess you could sort of call it diy at a price.

Awesome Fuge, had to ask because it seems perfectly matched! Sweet setup. Only problem I have with this setup, is that it gives me more ideas and "DOH! why didn't I do that!" than my wallet can handle

 

[2swift]

It works very well for my needs and soon very soon I will not need to run any media Witch in it's self is nice just throw a little floss at feeding time and pull it after words!

Nice 55 man, you do pick some nice rock. Who customized your sump, Im having a problem finding one made that fits under my 55. Great Job!

Well I found The standard refuge 30 on aquamartonline.com but it was to wide for my cabinet so I call the makers of the fuge and asked if they would do a custom job and they said no problem.
They made mine 34"L 10 1/4"w 18" t For 300$ included shipping Bulk heads and lights
