    I actually using a reef octopus ATO. It activate by a float switch attached to a pump that draws water from the reservoir built within the sump when the water level drops. I haven't setup or test it yet though.

    The height of the durso is wrong. Main durso is on the left shd be lower as it act as main & full siphon and drain pipe, middle durso which acts as open channel is higher with air tube on top cover. Air tubing shd be curl down to above main durso on the left. When water level rises too much & block the hole of the tubing, the air tube helps to drain water down to original water level fast to become full siphon piping. Right durso is correct except for the air tube. Photo courtesy of sherilyn91. Hope u dun mind I used them.

    Abt a mth ago thru Iwarna's Justin. For it has to be convenient to me at the same time as I want do all one shot. But now I starting to think it's not a very gd idea after all. Newbies dun learn from me. Haha... Was in discussion with Justin for quite long though to iron out most details before committing. Tank built takes abt 3-4wks. Ah Heng does bean animal. No wonder he said only abt 10 customers ask him do bean animal. Publicity not enough!! Haha...

    Continued... Using 2 jebao dc9000 pumps.Using Skimz RR113 to run aio pellet. So hv to fix the pellets clumping together problem. Nv soak my pellets haha. Pic of my sump. Inspired by Royal exclusiv dream box & Trigger systems tideline series sump designs. Still have some tidying up to do. Using bk my old skimmer, Deltec sc1455. Kaisu a bit here. One way valve to prevent water to back flow into sump from display. Fts for now. Now question is to cycle or not to cycle? My 5 old fishes, one red plate and some remaining cuc are back in. Using back 10% old tank water & some remaining old LR and added some liquid bacteria. Light not align directly above DT as bracket too short. Tank maker will come bk to fix another day. Btw I using my old 3ft lights. Looked a bit weird now on the 4ft tank but bo bian cos pocket burnt one hole liao. Maybe my target next upgrade, lol.

    Iwarna's Ah Heng. Thanks, bros. Some update. Tank arrived as scheduled on Saturday morning but first have to decom & clear out old tank. Water drained and livestock removed to temp holding styrofoam box. Heng and his co worker bringing cabinet in first. I chose black duchess laminate for my cabinet. Ventilation box up for compressor chiller. Display tank arriving at my door. Heavy tank, need 3 persons to lift and carefully place on top of cabinet. Fixing up 3 durso for bean animal. Ah Heng doing rest of the plumbing. Special grade reef sand & aquaroche ceramic rocks in!! Installing giesemann bracket for hanging my lights. Turn out to be too short. Need to add an extension rod to it. Have to do another day then. Iwarna's Karthi putting water in & Compressor guy also came to install my Dalkin 1hp compressor chiller. Water is mixed with rodi using Royal Nature synthetic salt. Coil is in. Setting thermostat to kick in at 27deg and out at 26deg. Really fast in cooling. Abt 1-2 hrs to cool down from 29deg to 26deg. Can further improve efficiency by improving flow in the coil compartment as advised by Derrick either by adding circulating pump or a plastic sheet between skimmer compartment baffle and coil to deter flow into coil compartment. Flow is too direct in from skimmer compartment according to him.
