Today was a long day of working on the tank, with not a ton to show for it. I went to Lowe's and bought about $100 worth of PVC fittings to start plumbing.

For now, I have made the hard decision to put the sump under the stand. I can always change direction later but that is the plan for now.

I also had to do some work on the sump. Because I am going with the Rollermat instead of socks, the sock holder section of the sump was wasting a ton of space so it had to be removed. Let me tell u removing glass baffles that are siliconed in is a real *****! I likely will put the Rollermat in or above the sump to minimize any flood risk, though I'm considering risking it based on the size of the unit. The space in the sump is valuable, so positioning it outside of the sump will allow me to put my skimmer in the first section as opposed to my second. This would make room for an ATS and perhaps a frag rack .... decisions decisions.
