I picked up a used 58 Oceanic a few months ago and have been taking my time planning the setup. The Tank is at a local glass shop getting ready for drilling, and today i finished a final 3D model of the tank with plumbing to the refugium and sump.
Quick explanation goes as follows. The Tank is being cut for notch weir overflow and two return holes in the back panel. Notch Overflow leads to three standpipes beananimal style, gate valve on the full siphon. Both it and the emergency standpipe lead directly into the sump chamber.
The other pipe is split between the sump, refugium, and Rubble chamber. This is so it is possible to remove the refugium from the system using ball valves. This way it can also be used to quarantine.
Return Chamber is drilled for an in line pump, which pushes through a SCWD Mechanical Wavemaker. ( http://www.3iqventures.com/index.html )
If you have any questions please ask, and as always, any suggestions and/or recommendations are appreciated.
Let me know what you guys think!
