    Add some sweet wireless motion detecting LEDs for under tank. They run on 3 aaa and have cool built in adjustable angle brackets. 2 for $20 at Costco

    I love the type of rock you are using. Lots of holes and space for corals

    Great build!! Love it all. I have a question though. Your sump appears to have 4 filter socks yet no plumbing going into them. What's the scoop there?

    Thanks! The water drains in to the compartment before the socks and then flows over the lip and in to the socks. Allowing for a really quite and 100% water sock capture.uruma3up - Rambo's Reef 135G Cube Build

    Thanks for the info. That's a great idea. Much easier I would think than a single or double sock situation where the overflow dumps directly into the sock. Better access, too.

    NP... Ease of change out was the #1 reason for this design, I hated changing out my sock in my last sump. So I always waited too long to change it, while water just bypassed the sock.
