Hello everyone, here is my tank thread, hope you find it interesting. The tank is 40 by 20 by 23 1/2" acrylic custom built by Kara Kreations.

Stand, sump and canopy are built by me.

I've been having trouble with the tank lately, because, as usual, I forgot to replace my RO filters, but the closeup pictures of the corals are coming soon .=)

can you explain your sump?

Sure, the sump was slightly modified after I took those photos, the water falls into the middle, behind the filter sock, into a small compartment, ( mainly to reduce the noise of the falling water,) from there it overflows onto 4" filter sock, after that it flows through the opening at the bottom right, where the water goes into the skimmer section, then it overflows into the front compartment , I use it as a Refugium, lastly it overflows from the refugium into the return pump section. I'll post a video of it tomorrow.
