Marine dosing pumps, tunze controller, try to use a tunze lighting controller for a 0-10v signal to controll the reef flow on a VFD, Not sure yet but with 3600 gph rating on pumps hoping to have no power heads. Lots of flow for SPS just dont want to rip them apart so it depends if I can use a VFD without spending $500. I also have a 30 gal EA sump and leaning towards a reef octopus since Deltecs are so expensive. No fuge this time !!!!!!

With a reeflo dart on a closed loop you would want 4 holes for the returns with something to alternate the flow like a ocean motion 4-way. But even at that the dart would probably be way to powerful. just my 2 cents

Nice job on the striping and the stand. Looks sharp. Looking forward to seeing it with some water in it. Oh yea. I still have your War coral, all colored and healed up if you would like it back.
