Is a 55 gal RR , home made stand and hood very well done , a 20 gal sump i had a hole drill on the side (thanks to my bro )last minute thing ,the lights are pcs 4 65 watters to be change in the near future for t5s, a blue line aqua pump for return model NH-100 PX ,a home made refugium out of acrilyc hangs on the back of the tank 36" long ,4" wide and 12" deep.

holy cow - that's like a farm of anemonies!!!! lol.

I like the fact that the overflow is in the corner. The aga RR has that odd space...

So how does the return work...it looks like the external goes back up thru the overflow. Is it T'd off for a closed loop (wondering what those what things are in the back of the tank)?

phil519 no it doesn have a closed loop , the black things in the back ground is just holding the refugium for extra support .
Thanks Sam i cant wait either give me 2 weeks to transfer some stuff from the other tanks .
