    I have 2 that are both in use, but I should have one free in the next few weeks. Also I have a hole saw for 1" bulk head in case you need to drill a hole in it. When I done with it I'll let you know.

    Excellent! I am in no real hurry. I have plans to redo the sump, and replace the MR-2, but the skimmer I want won't be out until December. I am working on an upgrade for my canopy right now...

    Here are a few updated photos of what I did with the rock work. Levels were all at zero so I also decided to move my clown to his new home.

    Everything looks great! Why did you do away with the basement sump?

    Thanks!!Wanted to reduce my electric bill and use it for a work shop. Have some other hobbies that I would like to use that area for. I know I will miss it and sure I might set a small system for frags or quarantine.

    So far I'm pretty happy with them. I'm sure once I move some of my corals up I will really be happy.
