Hey guys! Well tank arrived yesterday and I've been working at it. Got the Stand built yesterday. Today started messing with some of my equipment. Seems like the Jebao DCP-5000 fittings don't fit my return line hose. Hose is a 16 mm, but the fittings I received are 21, 26, 32. So not sure if I can just pop over to Lowe's/Home Depot to get a 16. Thoughts?
Today basically just going to work on setting up the Sump, Piping, Put Tank in place on stand. Also started my RODI Unit (4 gal/hour, need like 55-60 gal) so it'll probably be a while before I have water in the tank.
The Fuge area with divider is going to make it a little more difficult to fit the heaters in the Sump, but I'll angle them somehow and figure that out.
