Looks great. I would have loved a tank in my livingroom but the strength of the floor dictated that it go to the basement. Very nice addition.

I think that might actually be shrink-wrap to prevent scratches.

Dats gonna be saweeeeet guys. I would consider not using the bioballs... unless you religiously clean them they can become a nitrate factory. If the sump is noisy there are other ways of dampening the sound...sponges,filter sock,etc...something easy to remove and clean. Or it may be a design flaw with the plumbing or sump layout that is causing the noise. Is it a herbie style drain,....durso?

That's a nice setup you got! The pictures the previous owner had posted were very stunning. I love the peninsula tank look

Thanks Doug....I will be reviewing the use of the bioballs for sure. Raf says this unit is very quiet, but he used different ways to obtain this for sure. Now I checked the drain and its a straight pipe just waiting to be converted to a herbie.
I looked up Herbie on the RC to get an idea of how to do this......still not completely sure, but first look it appears to be a simple setup. Thanks I will be chatting to you about this. Quote:
