plumbing and gear pics, who wants to share?

[fishsoldseprtly]

Theres a "Tank Pic" thread I figured it would be nice to have a thread on filtration and sump pics.
I have seen a lot of tanks in this hobby as well as whats under the tank or whats in the cabinet. I have seen some clean systems and filtration from a lot of reefers.
I wanted to start this thread to see if members want to share what they have for filtration and plumbing.
Hows yours look? any pics?... ok whos first?

Not a clean sump by far.....I am still learning and tweaking my setup. Any comments to improve will be greatly appreciated!

Equip list for 30g sump
Rio 3100 return pump
cheazy impulse bought U/V sterilizer...105gph 24w UV
Remora protein skimmer
$ 10.00 airstone skimmer for S&G's
micron bag
lr/ls
higher algae
and my poor maroon clown that got beat up.
I decided to run it this way because I have a Fluval FX/5 (got it at a steal of a price $120.00 brand new)which contains my phoszorb,carbon, ceramic rings.....etc.

Thanks in advance for any comments!!!!

Okay, Warren. Here's my plumbing mess. Just for you, bud!

I run a Sequence Dart through an OM 4-way...

...that's plumbed to 4 returns.

Last year, I upgraded from an ES5-3 to a CS8-3.
