I also transferred my reactor over and hooked it up to the manifold. Very cool![/URL][/IMG]
I went to the LFS to get a Chromis but they didn't have any. I will try Value Pet tomorrow.
I put that tube into the Durso and it instantly made it quieter![/URL][/IMG]
Now I just have to quiet the end that dumps into the sump. I put some PVC on the end so the water doesn't fall into the sump and splash, but it is still lous and souds like running water.
Yesterday I put a bottle of Dr.Tim's in the tank and I know it says to add fish so it has something to feed on. I went to add my Chromis but my kids had a fit and didn't want him to maybe die. I guess I will go get another Chromis tomorrow.
I just moved my mp40's over to give the water some move movement. I also played with the skimmer some more. I got it to fit in the left chamber but it is too tight and gets in the way of the filter socks. It fits fine in the center chamber so it looks like that's where it is going to have to...
For me to lower the hood I am going to need to drop it about a heavy inch. I will look at quarter round but i may just remove the piece inside. I will see whatever is easier. it may just be easier to remove the inside one because i don't have to finish it or anything. just slap a new one on...
This is how I plan to hang the lights.[/URL][/IMG][/URL][/IMG][/URL][/IMG]
I just used wire and will attach the lights. Once I move the lights over I will post more pictures.

Simple. Easy. Clean. Done.
This thing is a BEAST!!! I am having trouble fitting into the left side of my sump. Something is going to have to get modified...

Or I will have to put it into the center chamber.
You can hear it coming down the pipe and then again when it dumps into the sump. In each side it has a different type of sound. The durso is a constant sound and the sump side is a on off flushing sound.
I don't have room to put another drain pipe. It's a single drain with two supply lines. On my 90g that I drilled myself i ran the herbie method. I don't think I can with the way this tank is set up
I will mess with it later tonight.
ULTRAFLEX PVC
here is what I think about ultraflex pvc
I think if you are using it for an under the stand sump it isn't worth it and a PIA. I think if you are going into a basement or another room it is a god idea. since I was using it under the tank I still needed to use a bunch of...
All fired up and running! No leaks but it sounds like NIAGARA FALLLLLLSSSS in my back room. I will have to mess with the drain pipe when I get home. I also forgot to add a shut off valve on the drain side so I may have to do that. I will read more about a Durso today.
The 105000 DC pump I...
