Getting Close!
i have the system plumbed now and it's been running fr a few days smoothly. The bean animal is a bit temperamental, I prefer simple siphone and emergency I think, but that's what te tank came with so too bad lol.

Some pics.

Bean animal is brilliant So quiet. We have a 6 foot coast to Coast bean animal and when skimmer is turned off you wouldn't even know we had a tank. Our new build will be same set up. ! You will get used to it. Nice build by the way !

Nice! All that plumbing looks well planned. Does the return pump make much sound against the glass? I have the DC12000 and its great.
Oh and its not "bean animal" its actually "be an animal" :p which is the username of the guy that came up with that plumbing configuration.
