Ok I am now draining the tap water, I just built my dursos and they are in. I am still having one slight issue with my drains leaking a small amount back to my sump. Enough water that after several hours of a power outage 4-5 I could flood the sump. Not to mention how long it will take to fill the tank with RO/DI. I am not sure why it is draining yet. They are sch80 slip bulkheads, not glued and I don't want to obviously. Does anybody have any ideas? My exisitn 90 uses a slip and I do not have the drain issue, although I also do not have a slight leak in my overflow somewhere.

Above the bulkheads but inside your overflow you are not glued?

correct, I fixed it. I just wrapped some teflon tape around the end of the durso that slips into the bulkhead and gave it a slightly tighter seal. I should be good now.

The sump is not special, it's just a 75 gallon that I drilled, but it does the job. My skimmer and all that good stuff is still on my old system so I will be bringing that over once I have the salt in. BUt here is a new pic with the rock added.

I love the aquascape. Most people would have trouble getting flow through/around/behind all that rock, but you've got like seventy billion nozzles and such, so I know you won't have any issue with flow in that tank! lol
Can't wait to see it once it's cycled and your tank can get moved over into it! Keep the pics coming.

Thanks Joe! What you can't see is behind the rock it is open and actually very little of the rock is touching the bottom. I will try and get some better pics of it tonight. As of now I have about 65 gallons of RO/DI in the tank and another 120 gallons or so waiting to be pumped in when I get home tonight.
