Looks good, who did the plumbing on it? I would get rid of the zip ties and support the bottom pipes by another means. The vibration of those against the bulkheads can actually loosen the bulkhead.

I did the plumbing with one other guy from the shop. Those were just to get it up and running. Today they are being replaced by pipe hangars. I wouldn't have wasted my time setting up a 300 gallon system if I was going to have zip ties as a permanent fixture.

Its surprising how many 300 gallon and larger systems still have zip ties on them lol

Zip ties are temporary we are changing them out today

You would be surprised how many people use them and leave them as a permanent solution. Or other things that shouldn't be used.

I agree. I don't like ever using them to secure plumbing permanently. They'll be gone by 4pm.

It's a blue line aqua pump 70. It's rated for 1750 gph. I'm using 4 12 inch LEDs and 2 24 inch LEDs from aquarium village

It all looks amazing! I am excited for you bro.

Looks amazing, tank size is awsome to bad for my house no space lol I like the external return pump using padding for noise, how many drains running to your sump. Are you planning on a refugium. Looking forward for more pics following build for ideas.
