Jim's 300gal upgrade

[Jim]

I've been in this hobby a couple of years now and I enjoy it greatly. I currently have a 90gal mixed reef, which I've made quite a few mistakes with but I learned a lot, thanks to places like this site my lfs and friends like NYreefNoob. So I decided to upgrade.

Equipment So Far
300gal Customized Marineland Deep Dimension
SWC Skimmer
3x 250w MH 14k
4x 72" VHO
Procal Calcium Reactor
Reeflo Hammerhead return pump
4x MP40's
Nextreef dual chamber media reactor
MRC reef sump w/fuge

I'm getting close to getting this thing set up and getting excited. Any comments, tips, or suggestions are welcome.

I bought it at Allstar Aquarium in Mohegan. He gave me a great deal

The overflow is on the center back wall. It's two separate boxes w/ 2 1-1/2" drains and 2 1" returns
