It like the rock work and it looks like it's coming along nicely.


One thing that jumps out at me is the use of a check valve on the return line. Check valves cannot be trusted especially in a saltwater environment. You don't want to rely on it to prevent a flood.

Thanks again today i am going to do some testing and my 1st water change on this tank,and for the comment about the check valve that is a backup to the holes i drilled into the returns just under the water line but thanks for the tip ,thats what i love the most about this forum that someone would take the time to look over my pics and give a tip, you have to respect that ,thats what makes REEF CENTRAL #1 by far in my book .
