    I would suggest a valve on the exit pipe so you can throttle back the pump.

    Thanks. Yes I put one in. Also have valves on each line that comes off it. Right now it is runs all my accessories, my Fuge and eventually my frag tank. Once the frag tank is in I will be able to open it up more

    I think I might just keep it and use it in my pond.

    Perfect!
    I actually run my reeflo most of the year, but switch over to an internal waveline in the winter for a bit of additional heat in the system. I live in new England and have a basement sump.

    And the build continues. Built the stand for the Reeflo Orca today. Few coats of paint and a rubber pad to dampen vibrations and away we go!

    Holy moly that is a lot of wires behind that. I think I might have a problem!

    My OCD just got the better of me - I need to clean all that up when I do the refresh on the sump and plumb this in!
