Keep 1 kessil for a frag tank in the middle of your sump, go with bare bottom, t slot you may want to message Jess as I think he has a few extra pieces....
I guess the plumbing is not glued yet? The return pipe looks crooked/slanted. Paint the pipes black or grey.

Looking foward to more pics!

The pipes are not glued yet, changing the return to flexible piping...
The kessil is a good idea for the future.
About painting the pipes, there is any specific paint I can use?
Message Jess about tslot.

I think most people use Krylon fusion on pvc.

So, talked with someone in aldergrove about the t slot, apparently they get some next week, they need to be really heavy duty, cause the light fixture alone is a bit over 35 pounds... After they get install finally can get my plumbing done and start fill up the tank.

Got tslot , today. Went a bit heavy duty due to the light being about 40 pound heavy. This stuff is like Lego for adult lol... Very easy to put together and many different stuff you can do with it.
That's a quick picture of what the this slot is going to look like, now have just to fastener to the wall, then I can finally glue the plumbing togetherhttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...e8de6863be.jpg

Nice galizio! Just a question about flow... You said you had 2x mp40 and one mp10... How would you set them up in your tank? Wouldnt two mp40 be enough?

I think the 2 mp40 should be plenty.
At the ends all depends on the rock scape, I plan to keep the rock scape at minimum so there is going to be lots of room and the flow should get everywhere in the tank. I'm going to place the 2 mp40 on the back panel and maybe the mp10 on the very bottom like 6-8" above the bottom panel.
About the rock scape, I plan to use the live rock from my 90 , maybe add a few more but not sure if I'm going to build one of those crazy rock scape( they look awesome), just saw a tank where the rocks were all in the bottom so the sps had room to grow up. Have a couple idea but still thinking about it.
To keep the rocks together was thinking at the E Marco 400, that j&l carries, totally reef safe apparently....
