    Looks good. You will need to get the right plumbing for the return or else the filter will not work properly.

    You just need to get a FPTx1/2" elbow to screw in to the bulkhead. Since the bulkhead is FPT, tubing will not go on to it without the right fitting.

    What kind of tank is that did you build it or is it something available anywhere? I would love to get one of those.

    Here are some new photos of the tank! I went and got some saltwater and algae at the fish store and it is now up and running! When do you think i can start fragging corals and putting them into the tank? Also, since the back of the tank is a little refigum, is it o.k. to have my main light be the refigum light too? Is it true that you have to have the refigum light on 24/7?

    Yes, i did! It was definitely a journey for just a little stand. Well it saved me $100 cause i was going to buy the viper hqi but decided to go cheap. Light was $80 and the wood, paint, and screws were $10. The Viper HQI would have been $180. Yes i will go look at those rules right now. Thanks :)
