    Nice set up, wish I had that kind of room behind my tank. Had to settle for an old closet and half bath for mine. Hope you thought about ventalation because you will need to take some of that warm moist air out. I just got done putting one in, never thought of it until the tank was running for a while.
    By the way, where did you purchase your outdoor chiller at??

    thank you all, but no update yet as waiting for my new camera to arrive. just taking a break for another week or two to spend with the family. for the last 4 months i build this entire system was spent in my garage and little time with wife and kids. so now i'm making up for the lost time but will resume my addiction soon. next in line was to finished the plumbing for fuge. live sand & rock are being cured having it ready.
