Right. In the meantime, I will run them in the barrel regardless since my tank is not set up. If there is a mechanical defect, I'd rather it become known before I plumb it into the system 1-2 months from now.

My DCP pumps will be here on Friday. I'll throw them in a barrel of freshwater and run them for a month.

It's amazing all the effort that goes into this hobby. I'm in process of setting up my 1st reef tank. I have to do like 10 projects just to get to setting up the actual tank. It's fun tho.

The light looks physically similar to my Reefbreeders Photon-W. https://www.reefbreeders.com/shop/photon-32-w/ Probably made by the same people.

This looks like it might work. However, I am not sure how it will hold up to saltwater. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hall-effect-G3-4-Flow-Water-Sensor-Meter-Digital-LCD-Display-control-/161142903824 There is this one too. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Orbit-Water-Flow-Meter-New-/351883012037

Which generation of pump? I heard they have improved since the early models. Any pump can fail, even the premium ones.

Thinking of buying 2 of these 8000 model for my 120gal build. Planning to use one for my dual 3/4" returns, and the second to a manifold that feeds 2 reactors and a 1/4Hp chiller. Anyone using these pumps yet...

I have a 125gal African Cichlid tank, and have been keeping FW for 22 years. So I can certainly appreciate the stability a larger tank offers.

Bought a used 120gal. First saltwater tank. Lots of stuff to learn and get set up. My goal is to keep LPS and Zoa.
