nice work.. if you can try to pump the pump straight without that elbow. Puts strain on the pump.

great work!

Ya I have not glued the line from the pump to the tee so I can still change it. I was hoping to keep the pump in close & I know it would put strain on the pump. I will probably change that.

So i decided to change the plumbing on the return pump to this:





Then I had a neat idea that I thought I would try out:






Originally I put a small piece of 1/2" pipe in the end of the 45's & 90's like a nozzle type thing but Terry had 4 nozzel's from rio that we sanded down a little to fit in the 45's & 90's and they work pretty good. I have the tank & sump full of water just waiting until tomorrow to do a full water test run so that a couple of fitting cam set-up completly.
