Murdoch's 160G Tank Build

[fishytime]

Looks like a great start to what should be a kick arse tank..... Have you looked at the reeflo line of pumps? They are not overly expensive, seem to be a good quality and definitely have the push to get you up from the basement

Johnny,

I wouldn't have the water change tank drain into the frag tank (this will cause bubbles and salt creep). Tee off the pump and feed the frag tank separately. Hope this helps. And I've already showed you how to post pics, so get on it stat!

Yeah, yeah... give me some time to make a little progress worth taking pics and I'm on it! lol

I'm confused. Why would the WC tank draining into the frag tank cause this? I was just going to use a pipe stand overflow plumbed directly into the frag tank. Maybe I'm missing something... but I don't see the issue. Please enlighten me.

BTW... sorry I didn't call yesterday. V wasn't feeling well, and as is I made her run around town until 4 with me getting parts.

Negative. I actually went with a Sedra. I was originally thinking I'd use the 3 pumps that I already have, but changed my mind when I found a good deal on a 2000a which should run all of the tanks.
