    Next was the sump! My brother in law gave me a 38g tank so I went with that. I like a lot of what this guy does on Melevsreef.com - Welcome!. His sumps are very nice so I copied his F sump design.

    I got everything up into my garage for testing. I made the front and back center support easy to take in and out for the 38g sump if anything ever happens. The test went great with no leaks over the couple of days in my garage!;D

    It was hard moving the 72g and putting in the 90g and then moving the sand rock and water.

    I also got my first RO DI unit from Bulk Reef Supply. It is 75g per day 5 stage. For $200 it has the DTS Meter and pressure gauge and flush system, and many faucet adapters. Great product and price!
