Scott,

No leaks up to this point. Will let it sit another day or two just to be sure.

Mike, you can do it..

New sump is installed and working GREAT.. replumbed everything and I was amazed how much more flow the pump was capable of when not restricted. 2" inlet, 1.5 out makes a huge difference over 1 / 1.

Will try and get some good pics tomorrow.

WOW, I can't believe its been so long since I updated this thread. Really sorry for anyone that was following along. I guess life has a way of doing that.

Figured I would give a quick update on the tank progress. Everything is doing great. Kicking along nicely. I continue to add to it over time and am working on some LPS and Shroom colonies now. So far have the usual things, like zoo's (green, orange), shrooms (green, brown, hair), xenia, etc. and some other large polyp stuff.

The sump is working GREAT!!! no leaks..

and it has certainly done its job. I upgraded all my lighting to MH and getting ready to up the skimmer as well.

Here are a couple recent pics.

Pictures are kinda crappy but you get the idea..

Enjoy,

Jack
