We had to redo the pluming.... There was a small leak in one of the valves that turned out to be a crack because I tightened too much.... Taking advantage of the situation we decided to add another valve to power the chiller off of the main pump

Lol I know the feeling had like 10 worth of krak in my tank. Dude chalices are more scary then zoas too, Duke played it safe though instead of just chucking everything in and transferring. Can't wait til I upgrade :(

Thanks everyone.... The real props need to go Vance.... He pretty much put the tank together.... I would have been lost after that leak and break in the plumbing.... He made it all happen, the rock work is fantastic and as for the pluming, all I did was supply the parts he needed. Now it looks cleaner an is more functional than before. It is awesome how one single pump powers the entire system...Thanks again for your help bud

Now the pluming looks way better giving me more space in the cabinet and is more functional than before... Thanks again for your help bud
