Re: MikMcgyver's 125 Build
looking good! are you going to run a filter sock on the sump? that is what the notch in the sump below the tank drain is for isn't it?

Re: MikMcgyver's 125 Build
Looks great Mike.
Keep me posted on how you like that sock too. Give that light Reef mentioned some serious thought.Dont think you'd go wrong there.

Re: MikMcgyver's 125 Build
I e-mailed my LFS guy and hes lookin into it for me. If he cant get that brand, he will find an equivalent... He hooks me up pretty good. Since I did his Home Theater con gratis...... Once water is flowing and fairly clear I will fill the sock with filter floss. If its too splashy I will as a small piece of tubing under and drop it straight into the floss...
