Ya, another one! LOL. Although, In theory this tank should be less maintenance? I have had lots of FOWLRs in the past and they were a lot less work! I don't plan on putting any corals in there (ya right, ) so most of the tinkering will still be in the Mixed Reef. I thought about keeping the two separate but there's no way that is going to happen. It is bad enough with the Mixed Reef and the Lagoon! Can't imagine 3 water changes, 3 skimmers! Anyway.. it is obvious that I have way too much time on my hands! It does help that I don't need to sleep though

Kien,

I feel we are close enough now to speak openly and honestly.
Go to bed!

Please forgive me for what I said earlier, please don't hold it against me.

So did my schematics scare everyone? Not too much input on the actual design itself? ..

This evening I decided to mock up the tank to see how it would look in the space. Seems to fit okay. Not too overbearing and still room around the dining room table. With the help of my son we went so far as to stock the mock tank.
