Time to update the thread with more corals I bought.
I have also added a Kamoer X1 doser with Tropic Marin All for Reef Diy solution.

Couple of updates.
I plumbed it, went with all hard pvc plumbing since I noticed there was barely any length needed. The drains have ball valves on them with unions. The return lines are located slightly above water level so there will be no backflow so I did not install a check valve.

Took me an hour or two to measure/glue and attach it all.

Im filling the tank as we speak, I had a bunch of rodi already made, probably around 120gals so I will need to make some more over the next day to fill the whole system up. Tank looking nice and level, so is waterlevel. Silicone looking sharp still, dont notice any bubbles etc yet. So far so good.
@josvanmeer nice set-up so far. I have a question I also have the same exact sump as what you have on your built the Fiji 36". My question is what size pvc pipe did you use? Is it 1inch pipe and if thats the case using the bulkhead that came with the sump how did you plumb the draining side? Cause I'm still in process of plumbing and having hard time to connect it since there is no 40sch pipe that fit beside the one that come with it (the gray pipe). I using 1inch 40sch pvc pipe. Any suggestion or advice that can help I appreciate. If you could show me a pic how you connect .

Respecfully,

Jay

I used 1” for all my plumbing. The plumbing kit that is given with the tank is meant for the overflow return lines
