Give the man a cigar! ;)
Done.

UPDATE 4-15-16

Moving right along... the equipment board is done and the sump is in!
Some of the plumbing is still dry fit as I wait for a couple fittings to arrive this week.
And some minor things to do like install the dosing lines, label the bottles, install my probes, put the Avast Spyglass in the return section of the sump... all in due time.

Now to head back outside and run those water supply lines from the mixing station on the back deck! :)

I know you've probably got some serious hook ups for all this awesome equipment. But I guess someone's got to ask this[emoji85][emoji1]. What would something like this cost the average consumer for a setup like this?

The prices can all be found online. But I feel investing in the proper equipment up front, means you don't buy 2-3 cheaper models, before finally realizing the value of good equipment

The only thing that's custom is the sump which I'm guessing is at least 1000-1200, but it all depends.

No reactors? No manifold?
