    When you say adding a manifold to the closed loop, you mean a closed loop manifold and not manifold as in running a reactor, correct?

    Custom Tank vs. Pre-built?

    What dimensions are you looking for? There are a lot other people making those overflows so you don't need a ReefSavvy tank to get it . Glass Gages uses the Synergy model https://synergyreef.com/product/16-shadow-overflow/

    Arin's Reefer-S 850 Build

    really not suppose to put holes in garage wall, it’s a fire rated wall. You can put a “lowery pad“ in there to kinda restore the rating, just not by code. Or fire caulking. Most fires start in garages and sheds, fyi.

    Getting rid of aiptasia

    Ahh, was expecting way worse! Sounds like maintenance not a plague. I have also had good luck with peppermint shrimp by keeping them in a large sump refugium and just moving them to the display when needed.

    I have had good luck with peppermint shrimps Personally. You do need to get the right species which may be why they are hit miss for some people. also need to clean your overflows, plumbing and sump as they are likely living in there and making babies. I have taken a sump offline and filled...

    Favia - advance beginner coral?

    Of you can keep Monti and Slimers, you should be good with the Favias. Look into Leptoseris and Favites too. They look good on a bare bottom.
