75 gallon revival, re-revival Update page 5

Its been a long few months for me but I finally got around to getting back on the saltwater path. This is the same tank that had the FW plants in it but it just was not the same and IMO more work than SW.

any ways same stand and tank. new sand, rock, lights and pluming.

SUMP:

right


middle


left


reactor and UV Light


overflow box


and back of pluming


there are two 1 inch pipes that run to the two diffrent parts of the sump the right is the refugium the left the skimmer,reactor and UV light. the middle is the return. some may notice thet there is no bubblebtrap thats cause I didnt put them in LOL. I have a mag 9.5 return pump and a mag 7 for the reactor and the uv Light. if anyone knows what the flow through the light should be let me know cause i dont.

any ways the lights, I decided to go back to the t5 lighting system and did the 6 bulb the color looks good and it was way cheeper the the leds I wanted.
