Plumbed the tank over the weekend it's my first time hard plumbing and I think it turned out great. Mocked it all up with regular pvc before cutting the red pipe.i leak tested the manifold and frag loop and no leaks. Still need to clean/ fill main display and leak test it.

Cleaned and filled the main display yesterday.to my amazement no leaks. So somehow I plumbed the whole system without one leak. Should be putting heat to it tonight and then comes the sand, salt. Rock should be ready by the end of the week.

Salinity and temp is good rock and sand went in. Pretty happy with the aquascape lots of natural looking caves and plenty of space all the way around. Added 3 blue reef chromis. another week and other fish go in.

Looks awesome! I have the same tank, would love to get mine hooked up to my frag system as well.

Going with 2 jebao pp-8 powerheads. I've used jebaos in the past and have been very happy with them (currently have jebaos that have been running for 3 years). Will probably go with reef octopus dc wave pumps down the road. But for now these will do.

I am doing the same thing for flow in my 93 cube I am building too. If you want an upgrade I found a controller that upgrades the jeboa wavemakers crazily. On eBay it's called jbwave. A guy makes it and it adds a bunch of functionality. Interface is something a coder would make but it give so many different wave options.

Let us know how the pp8's work. I am curious if it's enough for a 93 cube.
