Thanks,any questions on the setup just ask me and I will try and answer in layman terms.
 
Do you guys think it's safe to fill today as I just finished plumbing it yesterday? I took a day off from work to fill it and run the system and on Monday I am going to run into the city and grab some media for the sump.

I am just going to fill it,check the tank with a level,run the system and then drain it. I am going to fill it up after that with water from my other tanks as I do water changes. But I can only use media from my 450 gallon to get it cycled as the rest of my tanks have assassin snails in them and I don't want them getting into my big tanks through media or ornaments.
 
Well the pump is too strong and I need to change some fittings as going the threaded way compared to gluing was the wrong choice. Things are leaking and I can't tighten anymore and teflon tape is not working to seal the leaks. I am going to glue everything and if a bulkhead seal leaks down the road I will deal with that when it comes around. I will never thread things again as it has been a pain in the butt so I guess I found my answer to my previous thread on gluing or not.
 
Woah that tank is way to small for rays are u outta ur mind?!?!
