Thanks! Its required for a full siphon Herbie system. The system has a dry emergency for clogs. Its how you dial the flow. I'll also have the valve attached with unions for maintenance.

Would there be any issues installing a gate valve at approx 45 degrees? It will be on out flow from the display.

Will do!

Thanks..you are correct, It must be 1 1/4 on the barbed fitting...I have the flex so I'm going to get the 1 1/2 npt 1 1/2 slip fitting. Appreciate you looking that up.

I purchased the Syncra hf 12, 3200gph pump and I'm having an issue with the barbed outflow fitting. It supposed to be 1 1/2 inches but is too small for 1 1/2 inch flex pipe. Any thoughts?

That is a deal killer for sure...

That is one con...

What is the little guy bouncing on the disk by the butterfly?

Thanks....makes sense, I will take that approach... I assume no live rock at the initial start up?

So you do leak test with RO and then add the scape? I'm trying to figure out best approach...

Where are the wires?

Have some stupid questions: I'll be plumbing soon and was wondering the best way to test and get ready for scaping. I prefer to test with fresh water in case of leaks during the test. But will need to remover water in order to scape. Don't want to waste 250 gallons of RO/DI and concerned about...
