Good move ;). Glad it all worked out for you. I'm still available for noise making though. Keep us posted on the tank and the baby !

Johnny, I am glad it work out at least i can tell the wife that she is more important then the tank :D. But i also loose some.... Can you imagine moving in during the winter in Colorado? I know it is going to be cold. The good thing is she will stay in California till i get the house ready for her. I have a month to work on the garage, the floor and whatever need to be done for the tank. Oh, she didn't know this...
 
The stand should be done in a week or two as well as the canopy. I will preplumb everything so it will be ready when i arrived in CO

I think that's the first time I've seen a Tunze return pump. Can those be ran internal and external?

Tunze master circulation can be use inside and outside of the sump but the one i have 1073.090 is the only model in be use internal for salt water. The larger model has aluminum cooling fins which is not safe for salt water but you can run them external.

I can't really tell how they are to be removed though...unless the top comes off completely.

Look like they pull it out through the front...

The Tunze recirc pumps should not be submerged in saltwater...they are ok to run internally in freshwater setups though.

That is what is look like to me. I don't think the back of that little box is removeable. You may have heck of a time try to run the cable back into the box and through the bulkhead...

Can you imagine all the water sit inside that small box for couple months or a year.
