After a 5+ year break due to water damage in my basement from hurricane Irene, I'm finally restarting my 90g setup - with some major plumbing upgrades this time.

A jackhammer to my floor a couple of years ago let me run plumbing to have my sumps across the room and tied directly into the water supply and drain. I can now fill my tank without buckets and do 10-15% water changes in about 10-15 minutes.

Finally ready for live rock and some cycling!

RODI with auto shutoff & TDS meter - check.

Under the tank - where my small sump used to be. Lots of room now!

Filling the tank that was dry for far too long!
