Nice work on the manifold. I've always found them to be quite finicky. Adjusting one outlet always requires some re-adjusting of all the other ones - water will always choose the path of least resistance. Have you found this to be the case with yours?

Sorry for the late reply fkshiu, I have been out of town for a few days. I have not found it to be a problem yet, I have the skimmer feed and the return feeds wide open and adjust the phosban reactors.

Here is a FTS from a few minutes ago, MH's are off so just under T5's. It's not very good and the tank needs cleaning and pruning...but hey...it's the middle of August.

I'm going to be moving the sump into the garage soon and start using a fuge again and also a frag/prop tank so I can keep the sandbed clear of frags. The biggest thing I'm not liking is I will have to loose my control panel but I guess I can have something similar in the garage.

Wow, so neat and tidy.. very well organized. All that monitoring equipment and controllers.. looks like your running some big heavy, high tech machine rather than a fish tank!

Yeah I like having everything handy and not having to trace wires to unplug something, I think it looks cool too.
