Overflow looks sweet Dan! Curious to know how it works out for you.

On the testing, its working awesome. the herbie is working great. really sensitive on the gate valve when you get close to equalibrium. But the overflow pulls a 1/4" skim off the top of the tank. All the way across. Thats with about 1100GPH flow

Just draining the tap water now, 4 days from now, should have the tank full of RO/DI Damn 50gpd units HAHAHA

Ya, but I don't feel like battling Hair algae and Cyano for the next year. Our water is natural spring water, not treated or anything

Well, OM-4 is on i't's way. Added some of the LR last night. Suprised, with over a month in a rubbermaid tote, some Ric's and shrooms survived

Heres a shot to settle Leah down. She;s more anxious than I am I think LOL

It is looking GREAT!!, all kidding aside. Is that all the rock, that came with the tank? Looks like it is quite purple, very nice. Can't wait to see it with fish now, LOL!!!!
