bro jervis, how high of the water level of the BM segment in your sump, you mentioned the ideal water level of BM is 6"~8". But, look at your is more lower then 6", is it correct?

If it was, why?

Hi bro Tim07... welcome back to Sg... well yes 6" to 8" is ideal height for the BM... my water level for that compartment is around 6 1/2" to 7". No problem at all.

Ok guys... need to rush to the airport soon... so just a quick update :P Here's how the return pump looks like... the pipings, ball valves are so solid... they totally overwhelmed by Red Dragon 6,5m3 external return pump :lol:

What you guys think? :) Please don't ask me too much technical questions... I am still learning what ball valves are for :P

Another tank feature... Flushing System... the return pump (T-off) will send jets of water through the PVC structure drilled with holes at strategic locations. The entire structure will be covered with rock scape... flushing the LR and shell bed from top, bottom, left, right... almost all directions. Pushing detritus and wastes to the front to be carried to the overflow by my Tunzes :)

The pix shows only part of the system :unsure:

red dragon..hm..... can pm me the price and where to get....

Yeah bro Milky... my first RD... let's see how quiet can it be...

If everything goes according to plan... will be able to complete the piping works by Monday... fill tank with DI water by mid week and add salt by end week... i can feel the momentum building up :rolleyes:

The Arctica 1/3hp has already been connected... the 1/3hp model is much wider than the 1/4hp CPU-looking slim body. It looks very convincing to me... like full of energy waiting to explode :lol: Hopefully it can help bring down my temperature by 1.5 deg celcius within 20 minutes :yeah:

Another closer look at the Flushing System... a network of PVC pipes... the structure will securely land on the surface of the glass making is very sturdy... even allows for stacking of LR (if ever needed).

The T-off to the Flushing System is controllable... so I can sometimes create a very strong flush whenever necessary :)

The tank maker will continue work today... hopefully more pix to post tonight :nc: Two words describe my tank right now... slow and steady :lol:

Piping is almost done... the nearer outlet is connected to the Flushing System... the further away is the return outlet :)

Haha... after all these... I still know NUTZ about piping/plumbing/DIY ;) I think it's genetic :lol:

My chiller :lol: Love the professional-looking piping works... neater than rubber hose... really appreciate the efforts that went into the setup... even outside the tank (for this matter).

The space between the chiller and the tank will be covered by a cabinet extension in Phase II.
