Oh crap! So I'm assuming you can't disconnect the wires from the other end?

Gotcha! So here’s my next suggestion: If the wires fit into ½ CPVC (otherwise regular ½” PVC), make the following Rube Goldberg and paint it flat black with HD’s $0.99 spray paint. If you go this route, make sure you thread strings through the pipe while you’re assembling...

If you’re talking about the wires on the wall, HD/Lowes sells a number of wire covers…..HERE are some examples. And the tank looks good....I like the rock work.

Oh boy! A can of worms on this one. Everyone has their favorite......If you tell me who makes the best spaghetti sauce, I'll tell you who makes the best controller. :o You can get a controller just for your heaters/chillers, or you can get a controller that controls everything. I'm...

Good choice! Now my two cents. If you have a working heater, I would advise that you spend your money on buying a controller. Regardless of the brand of heater you have, they will fail. And the failure you need to protect your tank from is the heater getting stuck on. A controller...

Brandon, looking real good. I like that minimalist rock look instead of the typical Berlin Wall that so many of use put in, me included. I’ll give you two weeks before you have coral in that FOWLR(+C)! :grin:

Wow! Looking good Sunny. What do I see…..seven Pharos? Keep us up to date on how they perform.

+1 :worthless And Sunny, posting a picture like this: and saying this is how the lights look when they're not on, is not acceptable. :o :p

You need to acclimate your corals to LED’s. I’m assuming you switched from some other kind of light to LED’s. I think I spent somewhere in the area of two months acclimating my tank from T5’s to LED’s. Do a search on “Acclimating Corals To LEDs.” I know that some say starting at 30% or...

The dimensions you just used are for a 20L, which is 30x12x12. I’m not going to consider the extra volume in the return section, only the volume about 8 inches. The 20 L would have 30x12x4 inches of remaining area, which is equal to 6.2 gallons. A 40B is 36x18x16, so for every inch of...

John, looks good. My only suggestion would be to get rid of those metal pipe straps. They will be all rust within three months. Go to the electrical department in HD and get the PVC conduit straps there. You have a choice of stand-off: Or regular clamps: They are sized...

I don't know about you, but aren't we there already? :o :grin:

LOL…..it actually reminded me of the query, “what weighs more, a ton of feathers or a ton of lead?” In actuality you get more volume per inch with the 20 L….larger surface area. However, if you say you only want the water X inches deep in the sump, you now get more head volume with the 20 H...
