1200 Gallon Shark Tank Rebuild

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
yea the old system ran on 2 hammerhead pumps and 1 high pressure pump that ran the skimmer. It was about perfect water temp in the winter, but during the summer it always wanted to get hot. Hopefully the new pumps wont create as much heat. I'm also adding a UV system, so not sure I will gain to much overall.

My apologies if I missed it, but what are the new pumps you will be running?
 
I like it the way it was. Are you changing anything other than filtration?

Im just changing the filtration, the main display will remain the same other than I am taking most of the rock out to make more room in the tank.
 
My apologies if I missed it, but what are the new pumps you will be running?

No problem, the pump that will run the skimmer and bio tower is one of aquatic supplyline's custom pumps I'm not sure exactly on the total power of the pump yet. The other pump that will run the return lines will be a manta ray pump, I'm still waiting on it to be delivered shortly.
 
I was able to get all the equipment moved into my basement today. The 2 inch drain lines are ran and working on the return lines now. Here are a few pics of the progress.
