Well after much debate, I have finally decided on a size for the new tank,72x30x26. Now I need to finish my plumbing layout as James intends to start on it next week. I have been playing around with CAD and think I may have come across something I like but would like to hear what you all think.
I am debating on the return pump. I have a Panworld that will push around 1200gph but I am thinking I may want to use a Dart as I am thinking of making a manifold to be able to run my chiller, UV,
calcium reactor and a couple of phosban reactors before returning to the tank.
For circulation, originally I had picked up a Wave2k unit. I have spoken to a few people that actually own them and they have good things to say but I am having second thoughts as I am really into having that clean look inside the tank. So still thinking about that.
I will use an 8-way running through 8 Omniflex nozzels for the closed loop. This will be fed by a Hammerhead. I intend to t-off to run both the 8-way and a spraybar behind the rock.
I am open to your thoughts and suggestions. I need to get this sorted out by this weekend, so let it rip. I have attached a PDF for refference.
One thing that will be changed that is not reflected in the drawing is that the sump returns will be raised slightly.
Thanks in advance,
Shawn
