Hey guys and gals-
I've decided to take the plunge and upgrade from my BIO cube 14 to a 40B with a 20G sump. This will be mostly a DIY project. Drilling, building of the sump, plumbing and stand will all be done by myself. I figured I might as well document my experience

Here is what I was thinking of using for the set up:
Lighting: 2 Kessil A150W P
Pump: Eheim Compact+ 3000 Pump (792GPH)
Overflow: Thinking using the bean specs, maybe C2C
Wavemaker: Hydor Koralia Smartwave Kit w/ Hydor Koralia Evolution Powerheads - 850 GPH
skimmer: Bubble Magus BM-NAC3+

I'll be posting pictures as I make progess.
If anyone has any input I would greatly appreciate it
