Very nice. Looking forward to the finished product. What kind of lighting are you planning to use?
DIY :D Plan on using 20 Cree LEDs hooked up to an Arduino microcontroller. That's the next thing I need to tackle

HA! I did spend a lot of time researching plumbing setups. In the end I settled on the Beananimal. A little more work, but it's well worth it. There's a reason it's so popular in the reefer world. My lighting also, following what the reefers do. Those guys got it down :)
 
Very nice! I've been researching a bit on reef sites also for my next build. They have a lot of exsperince using sumps and getting water to them.

Yeah definitely. Reefcentral.com is where I lurk. They have some of the most impressive setups there. On MFK we get all excited if we can hook up a canister filter and get it right the first time :ROFL:

Are you going to build your own acrylic sump too?
No, I just used an old an ugly 40g glass tank.
