looks great randy!!

Just the vortec and return for flow?

Hey Walter. Glad you found it ok.
I started the tank with one of the new Maxi Jet Utility pumps as my return. It was the largest one. 5500. And it was tons of flow. The overflow could just barely handle it, but it was a little loud. Downgraded to the 4500, and it's good now, but needed a boost. I added an MP-10 vortech and it's enough for now. Not a ton of flow, but with the big Scolys on the bottom, any more and they get blown around too much. The 5500 return had them flapped up a little too much. And it's nice to have the Vortech giving some random/pulsing flow.

Brought my camera home tonight for a couple new pics. I added a piece of my Happy Endings Acan last week. It's looking great in there.
