Nice!!!! How does the filtration work? ive been thinking about making something like that to filter all my fry raising tanks. Are the tanks being constantly filled and when the water level is above the drain. those the water flow back to the wet/dry sump?

Sorry didn't know you want specifics I'm still trying to setup my site.
A little description of how it works. I can help you with some ideas if you want Pm me.
Basic materials for 1000g centralized setup
- I used a 180 G tank which I converted into my sump
- Couple of containers from lowes
- Some plastic mess bought from ebay
- 100 pounds of carbon
- Bio balls
- Ceramic rings
- A swimming pool pump
- Air pump
- one air stone per tank
- 14 6F tanks over two storage level metal racks
- 4" pipes to drain all the water and 1.5" pipes for my outtake
- 2 350 heaters
Basic Filtration
- The water gets collected from every tank bottom and top rack then it gets deposit to my sump.
- First it goes through the 2 layers of plastic mess and cotton removing all the think waste.
- Second layer of thinner plastic mess and cotton to remote finer waste and left overs
- Full container of ceramic rings to grow good bacteria
- Full container of bio balls to oxygen the water.
- Full container of carbon to filter my water
