Those are little LED puck lights i stuck down there so i can see when the bottom of the tank is covered lol
 
This is a pressurized filtration system right? what size pump (gph) are you using. I like the look of it. what is the procedure for cleaning the filters? do you have a drain valve somewhere so that once the system is turned off you can drain off the water in the filters to prevent a huge wet mess?

Its a 975gph pump, and there are two ball valves on the front of the canisters for draining...these are the easiest canister ive ever had when it comes to cleaning...virtually no water mess, refilling is easy (open the plug on top and let the air out), and they hold a ton of media.

the little black caps on the bottom below the pressure guages are the drains and the white plug on top it to let air out...i also have a ball valve on my inlet and outlet to stop the water completely
 
Looking good mate,i take it you just glued the pipework together?
