    Oh, that's great! I have a friend with a 900g setup running four 400 Radium MH's with dimmable ballasts. Its pretty amazing. Love that cube man. I wish I could find one locally :(

    Thanks guys!

    I took a pic of my sump last night, very happy with the plumbing. I may upgrade in a bit so my return area is larger, but working good for now:

    I went with a Reef Octopus NW-110, had wanted the 150 but was a tiny bit too big for the sump. I hear the RO's are a great bang for the buck, got a great deal on it during Black Friday sales.

    MoJoe - I actually just got an NWB-110 last night myself and I was also pleasantly surprised. It was a lot large than I anticipated it to be. Feels very sturdy!!

    I am curious to see how it will perform once it breaks in!!!
