Just read through and started following your build. I am excited to watch it come alive!
Also, I don't know why but whenever I see posts by you around the site I cannot help but to hear music like this... hhhmmmmm...
If it’s worth doing it’s worth doing to excess!
Well it’s a little bigger than a 120 aquarium. So say 60g?Gear coming along nicely! Great sump, what’s the water volume on that?

Here is the CADS Cloth 600 rollermat. While I loved the orangish plexiglass placards, they didn’t make the team.
It is a very sturdy unit with a legit motor on it. I’ve got it temporarily installed. Seems to be a good option for a larger system.
The last three days have been a blur. Despite having to go to work, Mark and I have been busy. As the Navy taught me, the day has 24 hours. You should feel free to use them.
The system is in and water is recirculating. Leaks have been prosecuted and dispatched. Much cutting, drilling, lifting. Temperature is rising, salt this afternoon and probably some fish will enter this weekend. Pictures to follow.
Any info on this unit would be appreciated. Any photos of it installed? Price? The website didnt show much. Is it made from white PVC or acrylic? Thanks
Plastic.Nice color switch!
Is that knob or gear end or whatever it is sticking out of the motor unit stainless steel?
Thanks I'm super curious. Outside of Royal exclusiv I'm not sure who builds a bigger one for larger tanks.it is made from pvc and appears solid. The handle on the gear motor is plastic. I will post pictures of it running tonight. It’s in a plastic tub temporarily. I will get a nice pvc tray made for it. Water enters via your plumbing in the top. Drains out of the bottom of it so it either needs to drain right into sump or into a tray.
It was comparable to the RE Vlies both in size and cost. However the form factor of the Vlies wasn’t going to work for this layout.Thanks I'm super curious. Outside of Royal exclusiv I'm not sure who builds a bigger one for larger tanks.
Plastic.
That piece was a clear plastic splined shaft that the handle mates to. The motor is a valve actuator motor that has a manual control handle. The handle can be used to tighten the roller but is mostly irrelevant except it locks the gear train in place.Interesting as in the pics it looks metal.
