Pretty much one is the drain the other the return, I had some closeups of that but I have to retake them. We will start working on the move later this week if all goes well.
Here are a few more pics of the progress:
<b>This is the manifold construction process. The manifolds are the skeletal structure to which the rock work will be fixed. The tubing will serve a dual purpose of placing flow behind and around that rockwork as well as providing some support.</b>
<b>Here is a test firing of one of the pumps through the manifold.</b>
<b>A basic idea of how the system will be positioned inside the tank.
The assemblies will be powered by 2 internal ViaAqua 4900s.</b>

<b>A bit more of a closeup of the drain</b>
<b>This is where the pump are supposed to plug into the manifold system.</b>
After examining this all day Im not sure there will be enough flow through the manifolds for the system? I am sure the tower overflows are going to work 100%
I'll post more as we continue to test ideas, follow along this will be fun.

Oh. Didn't realize this post was old, lol. When I went into JoMars after the September meet, they had 2 large pipes covered in snail shells, rubble, etc. Even had a leather in it!!!

We installed the Tunze 6100 a few weeks back and added a few more fish. Now I need a light for it and we are off to the races. Coraline algae is starting to grow on the overflow tubes.
No pics just yet.

I doubt we will have room in this one man, but we are in talks to set up a 265 Display behind the counter soon, if so thats where she should go. Those guys get HUGE and need some serious room.
