This first one is a general view of the rear of the tank. All 4 light's are on in this pic.

This shot is of the Refugium which was the sump for the old tank. It was a HUGE pain to cut out the baffles which Quinn and I ended up smashing to get them out. This tank is very grungy as there is sill velcro on the outisde and after all it was a sump :rolleyes: The fuge is lit with 4 Flourescent bulb's and 2 of the bulb's are overdriven 2 X. I left the origional baffle in that separated the sump from the fuge. If anyone want's a scientific explanation for this I'm sure I can bs and come up with a new fad :lol: :rolleyes:

This shot is taken from the entrance of the Tank room. the room is 16ft long by 10 ft wide. The tank, sump and Fuge span this whole length. The frag tank will be going beside the Refugium and will be plumbed into the system as well.

This pic if of the 100g UFA sump. Great investment. If I need a hole it's so simple to make one. I have the flow from the tank and fuge going into an IO bucket that has 5 1 x 1 inche holes cut in the bottom side of the bucket.

This is a shot that I took today. I have some pics of yesterday but the tank was quite cloudy still. My 90g was packed and this tank will be too in about a year when thing's grow. There will be backing on the tank when I get around to it so it wont alway's be see through. The lights are alot less noticeable now as the water is clearer. When it was cloudy you could see the line between the 250w Iwasaki and 400w Radium bulb's. There is 2 of each bulb on the tank for a total of 4 halides over 6 feet as well as a 6ft T5 actinic fixture for dusk and dawn. It stays on all day.
