I haven't got all the details worked out yet. But the plan is to tee off my return line to pump water from the tank and to pump water to the tank via the pump you see in the picture, I'm not sure at this point if that pump will be strong enough to move the water seven feet up then 40 feet vertical.

Great thread, it looks like it will be a really nice build when you are done...

Could you maybe expand on your water change station? How will you get water to the tank?

Hey, sorry I missed this post, it's about the same as wiring in a light switch. You should be able to pick up everything you need from Home Depot. fan, wiring, humidistat.

Can I ask if you know the wall thickness of the Square tubing used in the stand in the first pic? I am building stands for OA's new renovations and want to make sure I'm using OK thickness steel. Acctually, I think I am Over engineering the stands. Allways nice to know what others are built out of.
