Beautiful tank and reef and truly amazing initial build. I would give my right arm to have developed those skills years ago. Fortunately I have learned I can trade pieces of paper for skill savy youngsters to keep make my tank nice . . . just gotta keep getting more of that paper, hah!
Just wanted to share one experience that you can file away or not. I've been using an HSA-1000 for 20 years now, and for a while I ran it as you are doing today with a bucket and a sensor. I did so until the sensor broke and I flooded my basement. Today I use the extremely simple overflow container with a ping pong ball instead. 15 years now with no skimmer overflow.
Anyways, awesome reef! Thanks for sharing!!
