Not to long and I'll have it going.
I swear the fittings reproduce in the bags at night.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my scape. I should have most of it "glued" together tonight.

They do that for me too. Well, all of them except the one that I need to complete a build. Lol
Looks like things are moving along well now. Love the look of that scape.

Thanks Dave.
I don't know if I'll need it. I was going to put it in the left side of the scape but just put some more Tonga over there. Thanks again for the offer. It's a huge piece of live rock.

I was at the store buying more plumbing today and even they were out of what I needed.
It's been a long time in the making but I'm finally devoting the time needed to make it all come together. Thanks, I have bought a couple hundred pounds of tonga branch to build that scape. Not to mention all the hours I've put into epoxying it all together. I'm glad you like it.

I got some rock loaded into and started filling the sump . I had 3 or 400lbs already bleached and acid washed. It sure doesn't look like much but it filled up 2, 55 gallon drums. It was a pain to carry it all down stairs but it will be cycling by the end of the week.

It's an Iwaki 70. I hope it's enough flow for my 150. What return pump do you run on your 300?
I have been running a mag 18 and a jeboa dc 12000. I just finished a sump build (my first attempt at acrylic fab) and bought a reeflo hammerhead hybrid and a super dart to see which one I wanted. The hammerhead was way overkill or so it appears in a trial run in just the sump. I think the Dart with the snapper impeller will be what I start with. I am gonna try out a manifold system. I took a video of the Reeflo pumps running in the sump and if I can ever get photobucket to cooperate I will post. I had a hard time finding any real info on them.What I have experienced is that 4000gph is not the same between the pump manufacturers for some reason. The flow is just ridiculous and they are quiet.
To each his own on this. I tend to like higher flow. If you have some power heads you should be fine. I haven't decided which ones I will keep yet but will likely have one or a few available if you need a bigger pump. Hammerhead hybrid gold (insane flow),jeboa dc12000,variuos mags think 9.5, 18 , 24. I have too much stuff! LOL!

One of my limiting factors is the amount of head I have. It should be around 14 feet.

So on my lunch break yesterday I went and bought a Bulkhead at a lfs. When I got home it was the wrong size! I ended up going to another store and finding the right size. While I was there I picked up a white tail bristle tooth tang for my DT. I also scored a frag of an awesome efflo I've been trying to get for a year.
