    Nice looking rock. When I upgrade my tank, I might need to get me some. Like the back of the tank also. Been thinking of doing that also.

    Heath, nice to see the tank progress a little more. What are your goals with this set up?

    I plan on keeping lps and sps. Not sure which one I will end up doing more of.

    As far as equipment goes, I intend on doing:
    MP40
    Mag 18 return (already have)
    Reef Octopus skimmer, 6 inch body (already have)
    Precision marine calcium reactor (already have)
    Biopellets
    Reactor for Carbon
    ATO
    DIY led fixture with two t5s to supplement.

    Biopellets and carbon will be fed off of the mag 18.

    I also want to build a cabinet to hold my ato container, Crap for the calcium reactor, and a dj power switch station.

    Nice to see your tank coming along. tank will look awesome with that rock work when it matures. It looks like you have almost everything to get it cranked up, can't wait!

    Sweet. I love that rock. When I go big, I'm going with that stuff!

    Just remember if your return pump feeds reactors, then they all power down when it is off. I prefer to have a separate pump for all the other gear if possible.

    The cabinet to the right or left is a great idea and allows more space under the tank for the sump.
