Here's a good sump shot. The refugium on the left was an interesting experiment. At some point this tank cracked due to my own fault. Fortunately I was there when it happened. I replaced it with a larger refugium which also cracked. This time because water caused the plywood it was sitting on to swell and stressed the bottom. My wife was the first to notice the dripping and she was not happy. I took the day off work and that was the end of my refugium.
 These shots are from December 2010. The tank was about a year old. Can you spot the mandarin in the first picture?

closed loop
Here are some pics of the closed loop before I took it out. It was two seperate loops (left and right) driven by two Posideon PS4 pumps and two Oceans Motions Super Squirt 4 way. I'll never setup another closed loop, but I did accomplish what I had hoped to at the time.

These are the latest pictures. - Taken March 2011.
      By far my favorite fishes are my Hawaiian Flame Wrasse pair. When the male shows his full colors, it's amazing and very different than these pictures. It's proven very difficult to photograph though. I will keep trying.

Hey Brad
Sorry to bump an old journal on a tank that is shut down. Was this your first salt water tank? It is pretty impressive what you did with the closed loop system. If you could go back and do this again, would you still use the PVC pipes to lift the rocks off the sand bed again?
