Congrats Denny - looks good! And yes, the DC pumps are great, I'm using one on my skimmer, and one as my return pump. I'm looking forward to seeing it with livestock.

Nice handiwork! Can't wait to see it after the transfer and it's all settled in.

thanks tony , i got salt and sand in her tonight , one of two reactors hooked up ,and herbie is dialed in dead quiet holding steady.

if it settles overnight ill do the transfer tomorrow night as it took me longer than i expected to get it all running smoothy today

the plan is to pick the whole bonsai up and just place it in the new tank.move my mandarins temporarily to the frag tanks and the rest of the fish to the new tank
