Thanks Marlin. The water goes from the skimmer chamber through the stand pipe and into the return chamber. The return pump supply's the two reactors, the refugium, and the display. Once in the refugium the water overflows back into the return chamber. Hope that makes sense!

I see the return after the refugium but don't see the stand pipe can you post a closer picture. I would like to make the same sump for my 165 drop reef.
Love the water change brutes as well very well done.

sorry your tank went through some issues when you were away.....good to hear that it seems to be on the mend.....your equipment upgrade sounds like it was a crap load of work but it looks killer and like it was worth the effort

Good morning - I was reading through you thread and am impressed with the look of your water change system with the two Brute Cans. As I am new to this and hope to do some of my plumbing this coming weekend, cxan you step me through that system and how it all works? Thanks
