Decided to track the build and move of my new Tank. Current tank is a 75 Gallon with a modified wet dry trickle filter made into a sump with refugium. Due to a promotion at work we had to move from Logan to Clearfield. Decided to build a new tank. Here is the current Tank:  The New Tank is a Lee-Mar 90 Gallon Drilled and set up with custom overflows by Randy as MSM. The stand is from another members tear down.... after purchase I found the stand has been used by several members. New tank in New House  I built the Sump out of acrylic... never again I will defiantly pay to have this done next time!! Plumbing all in and dry fit.  Next is glue all joints add water, sand, rocks... Then move the livestock from Logan. Any advise on moving livestock or plumbing suggestions before I glue please let me know. ------------- 34G solana |

Adding a union at the top of your plumbing may save you some head ache later. On your return/drain you could also add a valve to stop the return flow if ever needed.
