A little video of the whole tank and down to the sump. Shows the NP pellets in the reactors dancing away, hope this is enough flow threw them.

Interesting idea to submerge the reactors. No worries about leaks there I guess! Looks like enough flow.

That's quite the level drop into your last chamber. You don't have microbubbles?

Holy Hanna!! 8' is a heck of a lot of travel! It took a while to pan the length of that tank Good thing my computer is nowhere near the tanks otherwise my fish would be wondering why they are stuck in a 6' box..

Looks great, and I'm jealous!

I figured that I had enough room in the sump for the reactor's so what the heck. I did the vid before I did my top off today. Return section is usually 1" - 2" lower then the reactor section but when it get's really low I do get a few bubble's.
