    Hey reefers
    My tank crashed about a month ago due to refuge glass wall cracking, so I made a few changes to my sump I got rid of my refuge and now running a bio pellet reactor, added another filter mat point and re-plumbed the sump, ran a manifold to the chiller,reactor and uv sterilizer. Things r running really good at the moment and I'm happy again. Here are a few pics. 20150628_111857.jpg 20150628_111918.jpg 20150628_112030.jpg

    That's a good size tank. Nice setup! Nice sump setup too!

    Any noise issues due to drain openings not being submerged? What re the benfits?

    There are noises of water coming out but being in the sump room I don't here it and its not really that loud. I have the water drop onto filter pads instead of submerging it, I didn't like all the bubbles it created.
