Nikon CoolPix 4.1.....I should have gone with a higher pixel.

Pixels are overrated!

Looks like it captures colors well, with good white balance.

Very, very pretty. Any chance of seeing a pic your sump? You've done a nice job.

Thanks. Sump is 29G. I have slow water movement through the sump. (About 275gph for just under 4X turnover with an Iwaki MD20). I sectioned off an area for a cheato, and skim with an AquaC EV180. I run a powerhead in the rear section for additional water movement. It helps prevent cyano from building up in or around the cleato.

Really nice tank... and for any picture that'd be posted on the internet... 4.1mP is more than sufficient. If you took a pic at high-res and posted it here, it'd take 20+ seconds to load even with DSL.

I had the sump made to my own specs. Usually a good lfs will be able to have a sump made for you if you don't want to attempt it yourself. Mine is 3/8" acrylic. It is large for the space, and can't be easily removed. (not that there is a need to remove it).
