Great job on the stand. It looks like it will be plenty sturdy. With your equipment selection, it looks like you should have a nice worry-free setup.

I haven't run my Vectra M1 for a long period of time yet, but I am impressed with the flow and how quiet it is. I think you'll be happy with the performance if you haven't used one before.

thank you i saw that the build didnt require as much as i did but i wanted to be extra safe. Also no i have not used the Vectra yet im hoping it lives up to its name and from what i have heard it will.

Well i figured since i will be getting my sump next weekend that it would probably be smart to install my control before that goes in.
