    Here is my new 135 that I bought and moved!
    I am looking to do all the plumbing over with a single sump, Iwaki 100 pump. A new ETSS 500 protein skimmer and I just got a dual 250W MH /4 55W PC light fixture.
    The one is of the tank, one is of how the two sumps are joined, then the other two are of the sumps on each side.

    Look great,
    I see your tank is near a window do you have any problem like algea growth or stuff like that? Im asking because I am setting up a 120 gallons and the only place i have is next to a window but the sun never its that window directly. I was going to put a shade in that window and keep it shut do you think it would be good or not.

    It came with some rock down there and about 1 1/2'' of sand on the bottom. There are two Rio 3100 pumps in each sump for now too, until I do it over.

    It that bad to have in that sump? There is no light on it either!
