    Hey guys. I haven't posted in a while. I'm in the process of planning a 75 gal reef. I got the tanks and have a couple of items of hardware. Right now I'm just trying to work it all out. I made a rough design of a sump and fuge. I have a 20 gal long and plan on having a rubber maid container for the fuge. I know there's probably a bunch of stuff wrong here but i wanted someone to critic it. Just any suggestion would be greatly appretiated. :)

    make sure you have 2 ball valves so you can control the flow to the sump and to the refugium

    It looks good to me !! Hard to tell on the return line for the fuge tho -- just make sure that drops all the way down so you don;t crash the water and make bubbles on the return pump.
