    Hello everyone, my name is John, I am starting my first ever saltwater aquarium. I have had several freshwater tanks over the past several years and finally decided it was time to take the plunge into saltwater.

    After looking at several tanks, I acquired a 90g RR tank a couple of weeks ago. Also, I just picked my protein skimmer and refugium sump. Now I am getting ready to plumb it all and run some tap water through as a leak test for a couple of days.

    I look forward to learning from everyone on this site!!!

    Make the sump so that it overflows into the filter sock, I've seen those designs and they are so much better than running the drain line right into the sock.
