Thanks Big nose
For sand I went with 60 pounds of Argonite and tried for a fairly even spread of about 1.5inches across the board.

Have done a lot of FW over my life including a 3,000g Koi pond and I had tried salt many, many years ago and the mistakes and head aches I learned from that should have atleast prepped me this time. When I first started thinking about it back in December and started doing some reasearch I was pretty surprised at many of the advances/changes in thinking etc. So I gave it a fair bit of thought, tried to figure out where I could go for function and improve on later as well as area's where I could grow in/up to should that arise as well. And yet still seems like not a day has gone by when I havent thought...Ooops should have thought of/realised that sooner....and still so much to learn. Hoping in a years time I have the beginnings of a nice mix reef but will always be more fish oriented..Its in my blood.

Thanks Nastay, that helped .
Now that I see what you mean, it might be doable, I'll check the syphon breaks, and see where the water ends up post power outage/failure.
