Thank you! The build is getting there... It is kinda funny this is taking longer for me to do then my 16 foot long reef LOL.

I will be back to this build soon.. Have quite a few projects on the go fish related and not so fish related.

I'm late to the party as usual, but glad I found your build! That sump has been my dream since they were announced, please tell me it's as nice as it looks on their website. The whole build so far is off the hook. I will definitely be following along.

Just spent the time to read through the entire thread. Incredibly impressed. I would love to see this in person, and go figure, I was just camping in the area of Milton/Barrie/London for the last 2 weeks.

Glad to see you chose the top notch equipment for the build. Can't wait to see it wet.

Hope it test out all good, can't wait to see this one run. Your frag is a cutie.

I've seen so many builds in my life, and creativity never lacked in most of them. I've seen creative people do things that beyond imagination and believe me when I say, BEYOND IMAGINATION!
but with your build and work in this project man you took creativity into a new level and MORE!
people need to understand that it's not just getting the image into your head or the thought through your skull, it's the end product that shows it the way it SHOULD BE looking like.

tagging along doesn't give this project any justice, this should stand alone as a reference to every build and to everyone that thinks that an aquarium is just a piece of glass/acrylic holding water in 'em and the inner look doesn't matter.

THANKS A LOT FOR SHARING IT WITH US ALL!!
keep the good work man. and my GOD bless your soul and creative mind.

Simply amazing! I might have missed it, but what happened to the vertex controller?

A little behind the scenes of my picture setup and work table for ongoing projects...

Okay what's the plan here?! You are running GHL. So are you just curious on how it's made??

So have you tried the center chamber bypass feature on the sump? I've been very curious if this works well or not. That feature would make water changes/ maintenance very nice!
