My 40gal sump w/ 40gal fuge set up

I set up my new DIY dual 40 gal sump/fuge a few months ago and I figured I share some pics of it with everyone.

They are in my crawl space right under my 120gal reef tank. I plumed PVC/spa hose from the over flow box thru the wall and down to the sump. Water flows into the sump thru a micron bag. In the sump is my skimmer, heaters, phosphate reactor and some LR (extra rock thats gone now) Then the water flow out of sump and into the fuge thru a huge bulk head (modified shower drains) The water flows under and up thru the live rock/ rubble with some help from a 2 power heads. Then thru the bubble defeater which is packed with more rubble. Then thru the another bulk head to my external pump and back to the tank.

I've built quite a few fuges... I think this is my 4 design just for this tank...lol
This design gave me the most room for rock and for all my equipment. And the up water movement flows alot water thru the live rock.
