Ric! Welcome!
Awesome system! You are appealing to my retentive nature in a BIG way.
SO clean and organized. You should be putting this all in a build thread!
Like and share often!

I’ve been reading and lurking here for the last four years but don’t know much about posting. Is there a way I can move this to a build thread? And where would that be?

It would be easier to start a new thread in member's tanks. You can follow the link in my sig. If you are on a phone, turn it sideways to see my sig at the bottom of this post. :)

I want to thank crabs mcjones for helping me move my thread here.
I started my cable management today and will start my controller box this weekend. I will definitely be adding some pictures very soon. And I think I need to apologize right now for my CDO

So it’s time for an update. Been working on cable management and also a nice case for my controller.
I’m close!
Hard to believe there are so many different wires and components involved in this. I have just a couple more cosmetic things I want to take care of and then it’s figuring out how to program this mess.
Here’s a few pictures to show my progress

So what’s the best hose to use for hooking up chillers and uv? I used Home Depot braided 1/2” and also stainless hose clamps and still get very slow leakage. Chiller is aqua euro and uv is aqua ultraviolet. Seem Home Depot hose is just a little loose
