hey guys,
i will be doing some work on the horror show of a plumbing job under my tank soon. and i would like to incorporate the plumbing needed for a reactor while i do this. as i am certain i will be adding a reactor in the near future.
thanks for your input.

oh yeah, do they have really small bulkheads that i could use for airline tubing for sale at HD? like the tubing for a water top off. i am going to use a 30 gallon tub for my top off resevoir and i dont feel safe with just drilling a hole and siliconing in a piece of rigid tubing. it would suck if that ever leaked.

thanks again,

what i did was bought a 1/2" and then put a 1/4" bushing in for my reactor takeoff. i added a john guest ball valve so that i could easily control the flow too. well worth the couple $$ it cost. shane

ed. sorry, the hd in vic doesn't have any of these. had to get em from a water supply place.
