    Duh... I missed that giant plastic box on the back of the tank. :p

    Matt posted a thread on the Blow Hole and they're looking for beta testers. If you haven't seen it yet, check it out. They're offering a pretty good deal for beta testing their pump.

    As far as the flow goes, I had the same impression and was told that you want to calculate flow through the sump based on sump volume and that the 10x DT turn over number includes your return pump volume plus any in-tank flow you have.

    The discussion starts around post 4 or 5 here: http://www.3reef.com/forums/general-reef-topics/ews-75g-build-planning-thread-139010.html

    Nice, I hope it works out for you. That's a h-e-doublehockey-sticks of a deal.

    I got some more work done on the stand. Got the canopy and some of the trim done and is sitting on top pf the tank. I still have the side trim and doors to do. As soon as I get them done, I will be ready for paint and stain. Here is some pictures for you all to see.

    I finished all the trim work but I still have to finish the doors. The pile of wood inside the stand is for the doors.
