Sorry to hear about your sump cracking. On the upside, good job plumbing!

Sump is not too big of a deal.. I picked up the side panels yesterday and repaired it... Just waiting for the silicon to dry to do a leak test (fingers crossed) and hopefully I can finish the project on the weekend.

Well I finally got around to getting some pics of the sump/fowlr setup.... After setting up the new tank and plumbing the sump into it... I decided to ditch the sump and just use the 110g. for the sump and fowlr kind of as a all-in-one setup. So I now have the 150g. cube plumbed down into the basement and using the 110g. as the sump/fowlr. I have added 2 TLF reactors of carbon and GFO, about 100 lbs of LR and moved everything else from the old sump over to this one. The only inhabitants in there so far are, 1.5" clown trigger, 3" huma huma trigger, 3.5" puffer, and a 3.5" yellow tang. I could not get a good pic of the tang. Here are a few pics of the setup in the basement.

Looks good... one thing you might want to consider is some eggcrate on the last baffle (closet to the skimmer) just incase the fish decide to go exploring,

There is no where for them to go.... even if they did get through the baffles they would just end up in the fuge.
