Nice setup! Do you mind taking a pic of your sump area? Would love to see how you did the plumbing. Want to install a UV as well.

Thanks yea i can take a picture when i get home.

UV install....basically a run from my main line all the way across the aquarium with enough clearance for the auto top off tank(not pictured).

Just drilled some small pilot holes and used 97 cent 2 inch PVC holders from Lowe’s. In the RSR aquariums there isn’t a bunch of option to incorporate a UV so I had to tinker outside the box on this one.

I apologize the sump is quite dirty i am doing maintenance as we speak to clean up the wires and stuff.

So this is a cw-100 which is a bit undersized for the system but I struggle to keep nitrates and phosphorus in the system so I’m not worried. There is actually two sizing charts. This unit is good for 3 cubes of food per day or 125gallons.. when i figure out how to finagle it into the sump I’ll post for sure.
