Does anyone know of any hangers/clams that can be used to easily fasten small dia PVC (1/ or 3/4 used to make a manifold) to the top edge of the aquarium ? Any suggestions ?

Check out ziptie mounts, (there's a picture in this thread (http://216.187.96.54/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=279070#post279070) post #12). Then secure tubing with zip ties.

You can get them with sticky foam backing or I used on glass with a little dab of silicone and they held 1/2" pipe for years with no problem.

I use syicky backs all the time in my job as an electrician. But, I woundlt use the foam backed, self adhesive ones. Not sure what ashesive is on there, or if there is a anti mold agent or whatnot. Just the bare ones with silicone to attach would be a gaeantee safe
