Wow, what a great set up! Someday, someday...

Takes time and some planning. I think this is it with tanks, will be working on modifying the other systems.

Me too, with the water volume I should be fine. Just need to keep up with testing and I should be golden.

I just read your entire build thread. Very impressive. I'm looking forward to watching this one grow.

Thank you.

Was going to wait to do the integration of the 50G cube to the 210G but I ended up doing it today. The existing return manifold for the 210G was already plumbed for this, all that had to be done were to to redo the drains. I ended up building a new manifold for the return and using both the previously return and drain into both drains aka Herbie method to try and quiet the drains. Considering the work, I ended up changing out the bulkheads for peace of mind. I'll get some pictures tomorrow when the system fires up tomorrow.

Managed to get the 50G cube back up and running with the 210G system. I'm happy with it now over all, everything worked out so far with the exception of a leak on a threaded union. Should be an easy fix for tomorrow, more teflon I assume considering it I used a closed nipple and this one was off the bulkhead of the tank.

I also move a majority of the electronics under the 50G stand as planned. It's still a mess under there but hidden from view and everything is accessible if needed. This will get cleaned up later as I'm being lazy and have another project I'll be working on for a local this Sunday. Second EB8 still needs to be mounted under the tank stand on the 210G and dosers need to be set up as the tank is maturing and sucking up the supplements. I did pick up more electrical wire chase to tidy up the loose wires below the stand.

Future plans:
-Integrate Kalk dosing
-Set up dosers
-Clean up wiring
-Mount ATI T5 fixture for sump light
