Well here are some pics of the new parts of the 80 gallon system (total gallons) reef re-setup. Bulk Head fitting and parts, also Return Pump and Loc Line directional inlet piping. Three 1/2" (inch) Bulk Head fittings will drain the tank at the highest point of the 50 Gallon Oceanic Cube. There will be one 1/2" return bulk head fitting and Loc Line (directional) screwed into it and it will be installed also at the highest part of the main tank. There is a pic of the temporary return pump and will see if I need more flow for the refugium than the pump can pump. I hoping for 200 gph but will probably end up with like 50 gph so I will have to buy a Mag 5. That's it for the new parts of the 80 gallon system. Now for those pics. I will also take pics of the loading of the 80 gallon system into my new "Used Truck", on the last day of the trip this weekend.

Yes sir.(tnwillia)Thanks. Me neither Blue Space. I'm going to be impatient till my friend get here about noon-1PM, it just the way I am. I get to drive my baby around too(my truck). Another friend of mine and myself put a lot of work into the truck like oil pan gasket, timing cover gasket and rear axle seals. The engine bearing were checked when we had the oil pan off and the bearing on the connecting rods and crank were so tight still for a truck that has over 200,000K miles on it. Its unbelievable how good of shape the engine is in. The engine should run another 200,000K miles now that I run Royal Purple in it and the rear end and tranny.

Me too, I leave at noon today, the biggest pain is going to be cutting 2x4's for the base of the stand and painting everything I want black, black, like the stand, refugium trim, etc.
