Ryddo's 265 room divider setup

[Bax]

Looking good, I always like the two & three sided viewing builds.

As often as the kids are in the new tank, you could just let them play there and set the old tanks back up in thier play area! .... JK!

I ran an ASM G4 on my 120g/240g system, with the gate valve mod and a mesh mod on the impeler, it did quite well on a fairly high bioload in the 120. The G4 does have its limits, and at 265+ you're pushing them, but it'll get you started for sure.

Nice build! Good Luck!

Sorry about the delay in posting updates. I finally got the closed loop plumbed, the holes in the floor are drilled and I started making room in the basement to house the new sump and other odds and ends.

Here are the pics -

This is the exhaust fan that I put in to help remove the heat and humidity build up

Here is the closed loop plumbing that I pretty much finished

Here are a couple pictures of the I-Beam and plumbing coming through the floor

And finally, here are a couple pictures of the basement and the setup I have running now. They are 2 - 40 gallon breeders that hold most of the corals from my old setups. When I broke them down I kept a couple things that I just could not part with.

I am planning on building a similar stand to the one in the above picture to hold the 110 gallon sump so when I work/clean it I will not have to bend down to do it. The stand will also hold the Hammerhead pump that I will use to return the water to the aquarium upstairs.
