Since these, iv'e ripped out the return plumbing and redone it, Built a skimmer stand and got the skimmer going, build a telescopic rack for the lights, and stuck corals in the tank ;)

TDL:

1. Buy led parts
2 .Put said parts together
3. "Hope it works"
4. Buy an MP40
5. Face the stand and light assembly with

Return - Eheim 1262
Bio Pellets - Super Reef Octo BR-70
Dosing - Bubble Magus BM-T01
Controller - RKE

Lighting right now is an 250w 14k de MH & dual PC fixture. Hopefully soon i can buy parts for my led build. Busy building a frag system right now tho, its costing WAY more than planned

I also use the adjustable flow Eheim compact 1000 for my BP reactor and on Carbon/GFO reactor. I have to say these little pumps have surprised me for sure

Evereting looks great, i like the skimmer and the rock work, but for me are too much bio pellets in the reactor.
