Well, I've finally set up a sump on my tank...i bought a pro clear wet/dry 75 system from a local reefer, and spent 2 hrs at my lfs(Aquatica) converting it over to a sump, and getting all the equipment.
Here's what I picked up.

It took me about 2-3 hrs to set everything up, but I finally got it going. My return pump is loud as heck, so I'll be replacing that soon. I'll post pics of it tomorrow when my lights come on.

Go for it...i was excited but at the same time nervous about setting it up, but I like not having everything hanging in the back of the tank.

Thank you Sarah, I'll post a pic of it all set up tomorrow when there is some sunlight in my front room. :)

Make sure that you drill a 1/4 hole right at the water line on the return line. This will help prevent a back siphon in a power outage.

Thanks Bj, already taken care of. I performed the power outage test about 6x, and no issues. :)

And in sad news, I just found my peppermint shrimp dead, so I fed it to the nass snails.
