Thanks a lot ! Yeh I def planned it out pretty good ! Yeh all the wires go through that black wire duct ! U can just pop the covers off and pull the wires right out !

Any more shots of the sump plumbing? I'm building a 250 in about a month and could use some inspiration. Looks great, I love the clean wiring. Where'd you pick up the channel? Thanks!

Thanks I got it off eBay but it was hard to find in black ! The same stuff in grey they still make and u can pick up from grainger or they can order it for u ! I wanted black for mine and I think they stopped making it but found enough to to what I needed !

That’s the closest pic I have of my plumbing but it’s pretty simple compared to my old tanks ! I pretty much have my L1 running as my return and the M1 is come up to a T and feeds my 2 reactors my UV and my skimmer !

Thanks, I'll check out ebay. Any issues restarting the siphon with a long horizontal run for the main drain? I would love to have a gentle slope for the return, but I have a similar long run from the back to the front for a return for the drains, but I doubt I will be able to do 45s.

Great build. The Masterflex pump is going to make your reefing life so much easier.

Since I haven’t added any pics lately I figured I’d add some of my dos and my top off container I just added !

Waaaay too clean and tidy for my tastes, ... looks great! ;)

That's really disgusting. I think one of those wires is out of place!!!


;Woot

Motivates me to clean up my wire mess. What size wire duct did you use?

 

[Steve1310]

It’s 1 3/4 by 1. 3/4 but the actual size is 2 inch by 2 inch
