I have this little dude that I take pics of and he finally got his first fishy. His name is Baxter Danboard and he travels with me and gets pics taken in front of cool stuff. I thought this at least appeared to be aquarium related so why not post it up here
Enjoy.

My friend and I went to Discovery Cove in Orlando, FL while on vacation in Tampa last week. I was really excited to snorkel in the reef there and see what they had going on. It costs a lot to get into the park $200-$300 per guest depending on whether you swim with the dolphins for 30 minutes or not.

So this is what I'm thinking for the sump. I'm going to add the baffles to make the mini fuge area. I like fuges more for the critter growth than anything. I'm going to have to play with the ATO and return pump spacing once I figure out the skimmer I'm going to use. I want something that is quiet and small.

I'm going to have to do a lot of skimmer research as this is the first time I've had a tank with a sump! :-O

Ali from Amazing Aquariums and Reefs in OC, CA just texted me this pic of his pumpkin. Such a great idea.

So I've finally got the glass for the silicone and decided on a sump design. With what I want to do, I've decided to go ahead and use a hang on back fuge (hopefully CPR aquafuge2) instead of making space for it in sump. The layout as it stands is this:

Return Pump/ Baffle Section/ Bubble Tower & Filter Sock & skimmer

The skimmer I got was the AquaMaxx AM200-S Skimmer from our buddies at www.marinedepot.com. So far it has good reviews. ...
