Help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The problem I have with posting picks is that it asks for an HTML address to retrieve pictures from. Does this mean I have to down load the pictures onto a webpage then I can post. If anyone can let me know the process for posting pictures it would be greatly appreciated. HELP !!!!!!!!!!!! I finished plumbing my tank yesterday and when I put water in it today and fired up the pump ( Sequence Reeflo Dart ) the darn thing leaks really badly out the back seal. Please let me know if anyone else has had this problem and or solutions. The pump is brand new.
Thank you

It's not really a problem using something like photobucket.com to post pictures. Account is free, you just upload your pictures from your PC to your account, copy the direct link, then paste the link back here.

More Pics
The following is a bunch of pictures that I took over the past week while putting the tank together.
Plumbing for the Refugium and Chiller [IMG]  [/IMG]Plumbing for the refugium return and fluidized bed filter [IMG]  [/IMG]When I Painted the back of the tank black I didn't paint over the overflow sections so I could look inside them from top to bottom. You never know what might end up in there. I test ran the tank with fresh water while it was pulled away from the wall to check for leaks. Drained it and moved it into place. I had to replace a leaking Sequence reeflo dart pump but other than that there really wasn't any leaks. Pump and plumbing left side of the tank [IMG]  [/IMG]Left side of 75 gallon sump, ATI Bubblemaster and Phosphate react and carbon reactor. [IMG]  [/IMG]Right side of Sump with dual sock filters, 50 microns and 100 microns [IMG]  [/IMG]Top of adjacent stand that houses the electrical on top to avoid water contact, 14 gallon refugium in the middle and chiller on the bottom. [IMG]  [/IMG][IMG]  [/IMG][IMG]  [/IMG]The tank is very cloudy in this picture because I added a bag of Carib Sea arag alive aragonite to the tank. I changed out the stock 10 k coralife bulb in the middle of the 3x250 watt hqi aqualight pro to a Giesman Megachrome 13 k bulb. I heard the coralife bulbs are not very good. There is definetly a differance in the color and intensity. Plan on changing the side bulbs later to aqua connect. [IMG]  [/IMG]

Update
Here is a new picture after the tank cleared from the addition of a bag of aragontie.
[IMG]  [/IMG]I picked up a few fish for the tank today from J&L. 4 female lyre tail anthias, 1male lyre tail anthias, 2 bangaii cardinals, 1 yellow tang, 1 coral beauty, 2 ORA percula clowns. Just so nobody thinks I am insane because the tank has only had water in it for 5 days. I have a large canister filter that is well aged from one of my other tanks that I am renovating currently on the tank. I also used aged media for my fluidized bed filter and aged aragonite. Water parameters are pretty good right now. Picture of my 2 new Bangaii Cardinals [IMG]  [/IMG]Thanx for looking Sean PS. Plan on dropping a massive amount of cash at J&L on Boxing Day.
