I would recommend a Herbie, for safety's sake. Durso is so 80's! Lol.

My idea of a manifold. The idea is to run a couple of reactors on the return pump.

Default The tank is up and running!

I haven't updated this thread in a while. After the cloudiness settled down, and all the coral and fish moved into their new digs, after a lot more water on the floor, the tank looked like this (circa late June):

Default Electrical Advice?

I am now trying to place all power bars and controllers and the electrical guts of the new setup in one panel on the wall behind the tank. I got myself some panduit channels (thank you Canreef for the idea!). I am looking for a panel board of some sort to mount all the power bars and controllers on. I figure I need it co be a couple of feet wide by 3 ft tall, but I will do an exact layout before cutting.

Any ideas what kind of material I could use for the panel board? I would prefer some kind of plastic that can be drilled, but I'm open to ideas. Any electricians out there?
