defigart Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 So you may have heard that I sold my 90 gallon tank, and purchased a 72 gallon bowfront. Recently, Carmen, my wife, decided that she wanted a stand to put her tank, (26 gallon bowfront) on. She started looking for one in ernest late last week. She couldn't find a stand that fit her Marineland tank, but she did find an All-Glass 28 Bowfront, and stand. She bought it. So now we have twins. They both will be undergoing some major changes, and updates will be posted as they occur. Here are current pictures. (Don't worry dsoz the Xenia made the transfer just fine.)

defigart Posted July 12, 2008 Author Share Posted July 12, 2008 Update on the 72 BF I got a new light and built a calfo manifold. All the nasty white pipes will be painted black. The pump will be moved when a suitable home for it can be found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
180Brandy Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 So are you planning on plumbing them together or separate units? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defigart Posted July 12, 2008 Author Share Posted July 12, 2008 No they are not "conjoined" twins. One is upstairs and one is downstairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePremiumAquarium Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Austin Powers. I believe that specific quote is from the third movie. Nice looking tanks! We will have to meet up again soon. Garrett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defigart Posted July 31, 2008 Author Share Posted July 31, 2008 I figured out how to get the pump out of the tank, and into a sump. Now just have two work out the logistics of having to return pumps. One, the big one, before the refugium and one after, the smaller one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsoz Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I have two pumps out of my sump. I just have two return lines, each entering the tank at a different location. One of these days I should invest in one really good pump, and use a Calfo manifold or a SCWID to direct the flow. Then I can get rid of all the ugly powerheads in the tank. dsoz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defigart Posted July 31, 2008 Author Share Posted July 31, 2008 SCWID? My sump wont be as large as yours, (at least how I remember yours). Probably a 10 draining into a 20 L, with the 20 being a refugium. With the large pump in the 10 and the smaller one in the 20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
