ok so here it is my 40 breeder that i set up i wont go into much depth since i have already setup the tank and it is running







here are some pictures of the tank before i got it wet the sump/refuge has acually changed since this picture the skimmer is on the smaller side with the overflow pipe to help prevent micro bubble i put filter cotton in the bubble trap to prevent bubbles all together from getting over to the return pump/refuge so i have some rock in the same section as my return were my pods are being populated



here is a picture of my rock curing it went through its cycle in this bin before it even touched the tank



here is a picture of my IT-2060 and my screens in the tank



theis RO/DI maker is awesome i tested the water wit hmy TDS meter and it was 0ppm




my sexy new pumps the reason why i am selling my tunze pump/controller

Look like blowpops to me... Especially since there are so many. Blowpops are like herpes.....
