If the tank is going to have sand in it then you could just cover you bulkhead plug with sand and PVC glue a cap to the underside of your stand? Your...
Glad to see you went with a Bean set up but why are you going to use a full height box? You can do a semi Coast 2 Coast and give yourself some free...
I am not sure what you are saying. The white screen is submerged in the water by about 1/2". What I need to do is measure the amount of water that...
Well this will be day 3 of the scrubber. I already have growth but I still need to fine tune the system I still have to add a second light and...
That is another great thing about an ATS it grows pods like crazy and without a filter sock holding you back and trapping/killing them they can...
And there in lies the problem! LOL. I will see it. :D No one would have seen the paint that chipped away on the frame but I did and repainted the...
I don't know if I should paint the piping black to match the rest of the outer piping or leave it white to match the inside of the sump?

Ya it is pretty great when the open kicks in it will become full siphon (silent) but with only a restricted siphon the open will suck it down and...
The only issue that comes up when the snails get sucked up is you get a gargle noise from the open channel pipe. I have about 5/8" from the elbow to...
With my C2C overflow I have had animals go over the weir. One time a clown went over and got sucked down to the sump he was okay just a little...

There are a few different ways to go about drilling a tank you can do a basic set up like Seano showed in his drawing or you can look into other...
