Finally! Our 60g reef

[Zrobotz]

Alright, so here is what we have put together so far. Homemade stand/canopy, 60g... We just bought sand, and looking for nice liverock. The sump plumbing is incomplete... still needs some work. We are looking forward to getting it going! (better pics to come)

Good start so far, GOOOOOOOOO SLOW and take your time. just a word of advice. Cant wait to see it all up and running with livestock. what ype of lighting you plan on running?

[Nick_Kun]

very nice setup. The plumbing looks really good. Keep it up!

[Zrobotz]

Looks like a good start. Can you describe some of the equipment that you will be using? Also, any plans on the livestock yet?

The sump looks like it might be installed backwards?!

[Zrobotz]

oh no! really?

[unbereefable]

Baffle with skimmer looks like an over baffle. But then does it go over then under then return?

[Toombs]

Agreed with unbereefable, either looks like the sump is just over flowing the tops or the filter pad you have by the return is to thick causing the water to over flow the paneling rather than under it, at least thats just what I can see =P

[Zrobotz]

Thanks, I will look into it

The picture was taken when everything wasn't adjusted... so lets hope I can get it fixed!
