+1. I'm thoroughly impressed by your planning for this system. It's obvious that you knew exactly where every line was going before you made one connection. Major kudos, at least in the top 3 of reef systems I've ever seen, if not the best.

Best wishes with continued success, although I think it's safe to say you got it under control :wink:

What a great setup, you’ve put a lot of hard work in that tank, and not to mention $$$. Congratulations.

Haha, I will be down for the weekend before Mardi Gras, for the Luling parade, I might have to drop in on you. I have never seen anything so involved in my life, short of the Aquarium control room in Gatlinburg. WOW. I will be in Ama on Friday the 12th through Sunday about ten am. Gonna get a ice chest full of Andouille before I head back to Memphis.

Avondale is a little on the rough side, depending on where you are. There are any number of communities that people "ride over" from and troll for stuff to steal. I would agree that welding a mesh cage over both units would be a plus, especially given the money and trouble already expended, and the economy. But the LA economy is not nearly as bad as most places. It's just that everything is so expensive there now.
