I have a Reef Savvy tank as well and I'm in love with it. I'm sure you'll feel the same way when it's set up

How did you plumb your over flow ?

How did you plumb your over flow ?

I used PVC for the overflow. I attempted to use a durso standpipe, but it didn't fit in the overflow box (I have the same box as you). I then tried a stockman, but my return pump was too fast for it to keep up even when I throttled it back, so right now it's just a piece of PVC. I would recommend all threaded bulkheads with telfon tape, so you if you ever need to take the tank down, you can do so without having to cut into the pipe. Then I have another straight piece of PVC going into the sump. For my return, I used flexible tubing on the return pump, then have it connected to another piece of PVC. That leads to another threaded x threaded bulkhead that leads to another piece of PVC with locline connected to the end.

Nice! So what are your stocking plans?

 

[magnoliarichj]

For fish. I'm thinkin Midas blenny. Blue jaw trigger pair Achillies tang. Haven't decided on clowns.

I want to have a few different variations of birds nest and digitata. Right now I'm just focused on the equipment. I haven't had a tank this big before. Water volume yes but size wise no so my stocking options are a lot different than the cubes I have had in the past.

Is that an actual aquarium stand or a table you're converting?

 

[magnoliarichj]

It's just a temp table to hold the tank while I build a modern style cabinet.

Getting the tank and te sump happened so fast. With in 3 days of me looking

 

[Jimbo662]

Wow...looks like a great tank!
