Can u do me a solid if u could? Can u put the no10 on the tank to see how well it hold up cause im thinking about making the same upgrade too thanks

no10? you mean mp10? i will be having 2 mp10w es on this set up, most likely set for short pulse on 50%.i can try just one when its running and see how i feel with just one, but i have read 1 could do it, but 2 is just enough for that little extra...


That's one sweet looking tank and sump....can't wait to see it loaded :)

thanks, i cant either! as soon as russ tells me the sump and all is in and ready to pick up, it will be filled that day! lol



What no water yet? Your getting as slow as me lol.

HEY! i have an excuse! i dont have my sump and all yet, its being delivered as we speak. i MADE UP my mind quicky on EVERYTHING i wanted and did not change my mind lol

this is me...:bunny:

and dont tell me slow and steady wins the race... cause thats bologna :tongue1:

Thanks I'm just curious to see if the glass thickness will have any issues also are u gonna get a screen cover for Ur tank?

i doubt the tickness will have any issue. im sure it will work perfect... but only one way to find out. and no screen cover. dont have any jumpers in my tank (knock on wood) should be good.

I love the stand in this pic. Does oceanic still make this stand? If so, it looks like there would be alot more room in there than the carbon fiber one from deep blue.

Yes, most lfs can still order it, it's glass all the way around I believe...it it's triple the price tag... I believe it retails around 500?

Is that the tech stand? If so it is made out of press board and sorry to say is garbage. I got that one and returned it because any spill makes it swell and it never goes back.

If it isn't never mind, sorry.

Haha sorry guys, ran into an issue with it. First was placement, then I realized the deep blue stands side door was only 11 inches wide, so the sump I was getting from trigger systems would not fit. So, instead, I contacted Jeff (customkings) and he built me a custom sump to fit the stand perfectly. I also built on the bottom inside the stand, a roller device so I can at any time grab a handle and roll the sump out (obviously after disconnecting the union valves in the piping)........

SOoooooo...finally, I think maybe thursday I will be picking up my sump, and the night o pick it up, I WILL be setting it up!

Bonomo53... I'll post pics of the reef brite and the tek light once I get the sump and I start the build...
