Tank Dave update

[mbdave]

Well the water integrity test is on and so far two leaks have been detected and repaired. I have also discovered my return pump is too much and requires throttling down. I dislike throttling but have no choice. I oceans motion is all I hoped and hopefully I will get years of service out of it. Heres some pics of what I have thus far....
This is the whole thing.

This is the oceans motions at work (no lockline attached to get the idea)

This is it transferring from one line to the other.

This is the subject pump.

The back of the tank

Another angle.
Well there's the latest.
Happy reefing

Ah I see, photo bucket is wrong.....

[Goldstripe]

looking good Dave!! Your sump looks huge under the stand. Will all your equipment fit under there?

[marineduud]

Dave are you using the 3/4in. bulkhead in the over flow for a return ? If not you could use it as another drain and that should take the extra flow
of the pump!

[mbdave]

Yeah Robert I have been considering that option, but will prolly just throttle a little.

GS its tight under there but I love that extra water When I get the chiller and reactor eventually I will prolly put them on the other side of the wall (garage)

Dave your project is sure coming along and looking good.
I've been kicking around the idea of upgrading the circulation of
my tank and the garage idea keeps looking better all the time.
That way I can upgrade the pumps and any noise would be out there.
Just another thought out of a hundred. I'm sure getting some great ideas sitting back and watching you and Dan assembling your systems.

[mbdave]

Well the stand is done and its in the house
