somebody on the other forum wanted to see what i had under the stand so i made a post,..i figure ill post it here also in case anyone cares or is just bored at work :)

Alright so now for the messy part. In fact it looks messier in the pics then it actually looks in real life. Here goes :

Light : Ati Power Modul from ReefGeek. 6x58w T5 bulbs. As i said i am moving so i dont want to hang it. So, for the moment it sits on bar clamps. There is also a Home Depot fan sitting on the right side. Its connected to a Ranco controller (together with another fan, same size, hat sits on top of the sump). They both go on at 81 degrees.





Skimmer : Deltec APF600 running externally. You can also see a Ph Pinpoint monitor sitting there and the Ranco controller. Second picture you can see the timers for the light fixture.





Sump, with a so called refugium on the right side. Full of chaeto and pods. I run the light that is perched on some eggcrate 24/7. JBJ Auto Top Off. Eheim 1260 return. Behind the Eheim there is a Mag 7 i think feeding the skimmer and heaters. Up on the back wall you might be able to see a white pvc tube,..thats the UV. Aqua UV 40 Watt being fed by a little mag pump with a gate valve and a gph flow meter so you can adjsut the kill rate. The half inch transparent hose is coming from the Phosphate reactor (in next pic) and the two blue airline hoses are how i dose my Randys Two part formula.




Phosphate reactor (that actually needs black hoses so no algae grows inside it), the fan ovevr the sump connected to the Ranco controller, Calcium and Alk containers. Two little Aqualifters lift from these onto the sump (n a high flow area so it doesnt precipitate, namely by the phosphate and skimmer output). The aqualifters are on two digital timers from Home Depot. You can see the timers, on the ground in the last picture by the two 5 gallon jugs that are for top off.






thats it : ) its a mess, but it will be better on my next build
