Greetings LostMind:...(.haven't we all! )

Someone a short while ago, on this board, stated that "becketts" can be purchased at Canadian Tire under the name....like: foaming noosle for about $15. Having a similar but slightly smaller system (195g+90g+30 sump), I decided to go with the DIY beckett, the mazi ventura is supposed to be similar,but more energy efficient....let me know please. Both Gujustud and The Canadianman are building and/or have some experience with the mazi (1inch I think).

I am also using a AMP3000 for main circ. To lower the flow in the O/F I am going to try a 1.5in C.C. that tees into the AMP just before the pump, therefore missing both sump and O/F. The O/F itself is planned to be 2in outflow@ apx 1200gph.
Hope this helps
Regards
