Seems quiet enough...I've only tested it in the bathtub so far.I just siliconed in the overflows last night, so I will leak test the overflows and the return system either tonight or tomorrow night.

Big updates. I moved last week and managed to get the tank ready so I could just move the contents of the 68g directly into the 110g. Its been running for a week now with NO glitches. The move went well and I didnt lose anything. Will post some pics of the rest of the build now and will post some of the tank with the livestock in it after I tweek a few things and clean the glass this w/e.

Heres a few more shots of the up and running sump. Its been a week and a half now since the move and it looks as thought all the live stock has survived the move. I have one "small" thing to work out. My wee tiny ocellaris clown is the only fish in the tank that is small enough to fit through the eggcrate strainer at the top of the overflow. He is batting 100% so far. Every morning I have to rescue his dumbass from the overflow box. Gonna have to try and figure something out...cause he sure isnt. Im gonna take some aquascaping pics tonight, after it gets dark.

Gutter guard from Home Depot or Rona or whatever, and zap strap it onto the overflow eggcrate...

Thanks for the tip Tony. Will give that a try.

Heres what the tank looks like now, unless Ive changed it again:wink:. I used the same double overhang theme from the 68g. I really only used two of the original pieces from the 68g overhang on these new ones. These ones are more massive than the last and and I was able to put the pillar in that I didnt have room for previously.

Looks great Doug! Hopefully my move and transfer goes as smooth as yours. Doug, from around the corner.
