So, been doing the research, getting some tips from very helpful members and I have started to build my first marine tank. I got the sump design from Visser and the rest from various sources.
The DT will be 700 x 630 with the water height at 550 (230 litre)
The sump a total of 60 litre
The design:
I have finished the stand (Meranti sealed with woodoc):
When all is done I will cover it in wallnut or teak.
The tank is being made by the guys at PetstopSA, hopefully I will get it this week.
The lighting will be DIY Led using 34 CREE Leds, driven by Mean Well power supplies controlled by an Anduino board using PWM.
The rest of the equipment:
Reef Octopus Skimmer (rated for a 400l tank)
Seio Powerhead rated 3800 l/h
Hailea HX-6530 Pump 1750 l/h
300 Watt heater
