Great photos. Shows things very clearly. My next set up will be a 180 gal with the plumbing in the basement, like yours.

Do you plan on using Chaeto only in the fuge

Looks good, how do you like the water going up through the bubble trap and over into the return section? I generally put filter floss in that area but wonder how that would work on there.

 

[Terry DeMott]

ya for right now I am only going to run chaeto

Was it very easy drilling the sump for the bulkhead in the return section

What Kind of bit did you use? Did you use regular screw gun?

Great looking setup. I just purchased that same sump to replace my DIY sump. Can't wait to get it running.

Regular holesaws work well for acrylic. You can use a router as well for cleaner cuts.
