I let it cure for about 16 hours and it still smelled. I was using the pipping like linkin logs, cross weaving to make a stand tall enough - that...
If need be I can always rinse it I suppose. I was more worried about putting something harmful in there so eggcrate popped in my head.
Stupid question but would using eggcrate be good for a skimmer stand? I was building one out of leftover PVC pipping and weldon but after it cured...
The smaller eShopps is very nice and has a small footprint.
My sump won't overflow because I made it extra high however, if I lose siphon I might have a problem so I will be checking that and moving the box...
Thanks for the reply. So let me get this right, if I open the OF all the way and maybe restrict the return a bit just because it's a quicker flow...

So I have two questions, kind of three. First, I am doing my first sump (DIY) and built evertyhing, bought everything except plumbing. My...
You can always go to a glass fabricator and send them your dimensions and silicone it yourself. I am in the process of building my new sump and this...
If the glass is curved that might pose a problem since the blade might not be 100% in contact with the glass, resulting in a scratch. Other than...
Thanks, I decided for the eshopps psk-75 skimmer instead.
Ok I am starting a sump and need a return pump, skimmer, HOB overflow. I have a 40ga. tank with 12ga. sump in process. My Skimmer choice is the...
