    It was nice meeting you too. I pretty much learned more in the couple hours there than I had in the last six months. I cant wait to get this started. I will check into those chain links. Talk at you later.

    Basically thats where the water is filtered and additional equipment and chemical use is kept like water pump, skimmer, reactors, carbon, whatever is used to help with water quality.You usually see them on large systems but smaller systems are using them also.

    Update:

    I seriously have some bad levels. All this time they said my tank was level when actuality the left side was 1/2 inch lower than the right. I shimmed the left side and voile, the gurgling sound is 90% gone. Its noisier in the sump than on top. Thanks to Antdizzle for showing me a design flaw I had. I might have to drill bigger holes to get it quieter but I am happy for the most peace and almost quiet. I want again to thank Antdizzle, 2in10, Computer John and NASA Man (McMcdonald).
