Mike I wouldn't mind seeing your tank sometime also when I am in the city. It sounds impresive.

Hi Erik,
Here's a pic of my sump set-up (had to draw one, as my camera's batteries need recharged ).
Only had room for a 15g in the stand - it's tiny, but it does the job. A local glass company cut 4 pieces of 1/4" glass to fit inside for the baffles. The baffles are 9" high, which gives approx 3.5" headspace in the sump, to allow for the backflow of water from the display tank, in the event of a power outage.
*Note to self: remember to drill anti-siphon holes in all return lines!



Not shown, but I also use a Tunze osmolator with the top-off sensor in the return compartment. The pH probe and thermometer are also in there...
Helps to keep the display tank looking uncluttered

HTH,
~Tamara
