Installed my return and skimmer pump and emerg switches. Pump switches will manually turn off pumps w/o having to into Apex Fusion. The emerg switch will basically shutdown everything electrically.

Thanks! Me too :bigsmile:.
I was trying to make it neat but the more stuff I throw in there the messier it's getting!
Thanks! I keep messing with the aquscape so it's been changed from the last pics. I've got it to where I'm somewhat happy now, I'll post pics soon. I think the more I keep staring at it the more I keep messing around with it.....I gotta stop staring at it :doh:!!
oh, I don't think any of us can stop staring at our tanks 
I think constantly tinkering with our scapes is more the norm than not

So it's been awhile since I've updated, been a little busy so haven't had much time to work on the tank. I did some rearranging of the rockscape, so this is the latest rock flavor of the month. I think I'll keep it like this though. I'm hoping to start putting water in the tank sometime in Jan, but there's still a bit more to do to get it going. Also, got some new toys ! One of the them is a Maxspect Gyre 150, which you can see mounted on the top right side of the tank.

So most people have a fish room. I don't have the space for that so I have a fish "corner" in my garage. I put up a stand to put all my random aquarium equipment and also got my 44gal Brute saltwater holding container. I also got a Neptune DOS for my automatic water changes, but haven't set it up yet. And, I got around to installing my 150gpd RO filter system. When I set it up though, I found my pressure way too low, so I also got a booster pump which I still need to install.

Thanks! Yeah it's bulky but it's a beast of a doser, engineered really well.

So I installed the booster pump for my RO Sys and added a post-carbon filter for drinking water since this sys will be my house and tank water supply. I have a couple more lines to add, but it's almost done. I have to say this install is pretty crazy looking though, its a plumbing rats nest! But with the booster pump, it makes RO water very quickly. My pressure was around 35-40psi prior, but with this pump it shot up to around 90psi.
