    Oh, the other question you asked was about the sump on concrete and a chiller. I actually took my chiller out of the setup as my room stays at a perfect ambient 78. There's enough water to dissipate the little heat the pumps put out so I got super lucky in not needing a chiller. I've kept it but never in the last three years needed to use it. You might consider setting up a ghost run of just water and pumps through some buckets or whatever to see how the heat holds/dissipates. It might save you some bucks and trouble!

    This is going to be awesome. Looking forward to seeing the progress. I'm jealous as this is pretty much my dream set up if I had the room for it!

    I was referring to actually setting the sump on the concrete to help it cool from the slab on the basement. Right now i have the stand build with a plywood floor for the sump to sit on

    I assume this was just an oversight in the picture... but you will have a separate feed from the RO reservoir into the tank, correct? You don't want to pump saltwater in to top off from evaporation.

    Huh, that's odd...the site should have auto-rotated those based on the EXIF data. Are they sideways on your phone also? Meaning, did your phone get stuck on one orientation when you snap it so that however you view it afterwards, they are rotated? This kind of thing happens to me now and then when my phone locks into portrait orientation then I take a landscape pic

    Go to the mobile site, both the pics you uploaded show up rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise.

    here is the direct thread link, copy/paste this into your mobile browser:

    Tapatalk hamstrings a lot of functionality, you don't get the full functionality of the site (media center, resources, etc are useless). Also it appears that it doesn't properly pass rotational data. Do me a favor, upload one of those 2 pics directly to a new reply but via your mobile broswer, not Tapatalk. I want to see if the site properly grabs the EXIF data and rotates it (it should)

    @Bud@Bud thanks for the recommendation for Jeff at LifeReef. He helped me custom build the equipment to what I was planning to do long term!!!

    @DangerJ@DangerJ swing by sometime to have a beer, game, and help me put this thing together lol

    No but for real if anyone is near Waukee, IA I would be willing to pay you in cash or beer or whatever you need to help me put this thing together. This is beyond my knowledge base from the last glass jar goldfish I have when I was 5 years old.
