Just wanted to document this setup and since I've been kicked off FB I thought I'd post it on ARC. I'm coming back to reefing after a long hiatus. My previous system, around 500+ gallon, including multiple tanks and refuges all on the same system, was in the basement and was a nightmare to keep up with for maintenance. It ran smooth and was a stable thriving marine eco system. Sudden deployment back in 09' to AFG prompted me to sell everything quickly. I definitely will never go that big again, it consumes you. But this NIB/used, never setup SCA 50G, was a steal that I couldn't pass up since I recently got the itch again. Picked it up off FB MP for $1000K still in original packing. Bought a new return and skimmer, felt they were underpowered for the bioload I plan on adding. Its amazing how much I've forgotten over the past almost 20 years of being in this hobby and how much tech has changed.
