Thanks for the kind replies. I am getting the 300g stock tank up and ready for a big liverock order from www.livestockusa.org
I am going to cure the rock for the next month or two and get the tanks ready with plumbing, lighting, etc.

Dave, I looked at your bar pictures several times. And try as I might, I don't see any Crown Royal.
This project is simply not complete until you've got some Crown. The basement is stunning - I have to wonder what the rest of the house looks like. Either you'll never leave the basement because everything upstairs is old and ugly, or your entire home is fantastic. I'm guessing the former.

Great looking basement and tanks. I always wondered what happened to those tanks in your basement.
Looking forward to seeing the finished product! and the GEO skimmer. |

It's weird to see the pictures after reading your "1000g in progress" signature for such a long time. It looks good.

I have not used this type of drain in the past. Geo is the guy who built the sumps and he designed these drains into the sump. I think the hole in the top helps to alleviate excess air from entering the sump and the pipes are angled at the bottom.
I have been working on this project for about 3-4 years and have given my system a lot of thought and made many changes along the way
