Sorry...Had to go to Chicago. What a drive! Bad news though, when I got there the "gentleman" said he forgot to mention in his craigslist ad that the tank had a "small leak". It leaked at the bottom in the back. As much as I hated to I left it in Chicago with a few "nice" words for the "gentleman". Oh well. It was a good trip with the wife anyway.
Had to postpone concrete for a couple of weeks and concentrate on my therapy. Arms getting much better.
I need to select another tank or find somewhere to get a similar one.
Lighting will be 4x400 MH for sure. With what I'll save by not going LED, I'll have more for livestock. Still not decided about skimming though.
Here's the next question in the mean time....with 300g plus in the system, at 25x water flow, that's about 7500gph. Any recommendations for pumps? should I go with one large pump on a closed loop, or should I go with two pumps with two separate closed loops? Maybe three pumps/loops?
