Looking good, anymore work done on this?

Ok I need some plumbing opinions!
Option 1:

Or
Option 2:

I'll have better control over the flow with the second option but I can't use both of the overflow holes in my sump.

Option 2 if you are trying to run a herbie style.

Option 1 won't allow you to run the drain at full siphon without a gate valve.

Haven't really worked on the tank much. Norwesco contacted me and said that my water storage tanks are ready for pickup. Hopefully this week I'll finish the water change station.

 

[Arron209]

Here's the water change station so far. I'm still waiting on some plumbing that I ordered to come it and still have to move it into place.

Updates?

Finally go the equipment cabinet from Ikea. I went with the black/brown and smoked glass door. The color doesnt match the tank's stand but its close enough for me.

I also got the ATO reservoir from Advanced Acrylics. White with blue top and bottom to match my sump.

Looks sweet! Makes me want to redo my sump.

Updates?

Been working on the equipment cabinet. Still a little bit more to go on it. I'll try to post pics soon. As for the rest of the build, I'm playing the waiting game. Three of my orders are delayed because of a train derailment.

Dang hopefully the goods are ok! And no one was injured...

Here's a few updates:
My 80/20 pieces for my light rail and my zeo reactor, media, and additives came in today.

 

[Arron209]

Drilled and installed the bulkheads and wire grommet for my water storage tanks.

Nice! Looks like you will be making some salt water soon!! :)

Yes I will be. Just have to plumb the containers.

 

[CJBuckeyes]

Very nice build, and good decision to hard plumb. I have the 70g version. Nice tanks, but the stock plumbing is a joke.

 

[Arron209]

Thanks. I agree that the stock plumbing is worthless.

Awesome tank, I have the 70G and I love it!
