    Ideas/Pics of Plumbing a 120 Deep Blue

    I'm going with an existing setup that is under the tank, but I want to switch it to basement. Currently there is a mag 9 pump on there and a huge SWC skimmer. The baffles have been setup in the SUMP, but the guy ran it empty.. no rocks or sand in the sump.

    Ideas/Pics of Plumbing a 120 Deep Blue

    The holes on the tank are standard holes that come on a 120 Deep Blue. I believe 1" bulk heads for outgoing and 3/4" bulkheads for incoming. It will be a 40 G breeder as sump/refugium.

    Is Spa Flex something I can buy at HD or Lowes? Or is this only sold at Pool stores? Are they durable over time?

    Clownfish Not Eating/Hyperventilating

    Have you tried some frozen or live brine shrimp? That might entice it to eat. Just a thought!

    Ouch - clown got nabbed?

    It could have been another clown as they fight for dominance ... especially if they are of the same gender (male).

    Edwin's Dream 180 (6x2x2) planned build...

    All I gotta say about Edwin's tank is " ". That's it! I was speechless. Saw the tank today and it is just amazing. His wife is a total sweet heart for letting him do all that. I had to bag and plea to upgrade my tank. Plumbing work is phenomenal. Great job Edwin. Please keep the pics...

    LED Hanging Stand or Light Stand over Tank

    That is an amazing looking setup George. Unfortunately, I can't weld. :( Otherwise, this is a good option too. I was planning on splicing the wires if they don't fit through the holes. I did reach out to HockeyNut for a stand and canopy. Just waiting on the loan to be sanctioned.. lol

    LED Hanging Stand or Light Stand over Tank

    Does anyone have a pipe bending tool? HD wanted $35 for a tool. :( I got the conduits.. I went with two 10' by 1/2". The 3/4" was too thick for my taste.

    LED Hanging Stand or Light Stand over Tank

    Opinions??? I have white wall in the background.. should I spray paint the conduit white or black? The tank has a black background, the stand is black, the lights are black. I'm hoping the white conduit would blend in the background and the lights will look like they are floating in air.. lol
