I am about to build my first reek tank. I can only hope that my system is as beautifully designed and implemented as this one!!!

Sump is 50"x20"x18"tall. Drains into the right and flows to the left. Adjustable skimmer wall and built in probe holder along with dosing line holders. Custom Built by BAO.

The left section is 36" which holds my carbon reactor, bio pellet reactor, and calcium reactor.

Reeflo Gold Snapper/Dart Hybrid tied into a manifold that feeds both reactors and my Chiller, as well as the return flow to the Display. Last time i threw a meter on the return lines i was getting 2375gph back to the top.

Also probably need to mention i swapped out my Luxcore Ballasts for Lumatek LK400's it was an instant 150-180 more par. Getting 1000 numbers 3-4" under the water now.
