Twisty nano's build

[twisty]

Both tanks will drain into the Sump... they both have C2C overflows with Durso standpipes...

So the Ehiem will be used as a return for both tanks....


I also plan on using the pump for media reactors off a manifold.

thanks for your input.

I'll post pictures tonight... I have the returns already plumbed. Just need a pump to get going.

Yeah, post some pictures if you can. You might want a bigger pump. I've got lots of suggestions for you, however it'll have to wait until I can get to a proper keyboard. I'm on lunch and need to get back to the slavery, lol.

Well my day slaving away it almost done!

I'll post a pic of what I've got done so far later tonight.

I still haven't glued the baffles in the sump yet... as I want to figure out what pump to run

Good call on the baffles. I'll send you an add, as to not clog up your build thread!

i'm one step closer to water

I got a piece of acrylic cut to prevent my fish from entering my overflow area.

I'm happy with it I silicon them last night.

Also installed the baffles on my sump.

Next plumbing, anybody know where i can get a slip 3/4 PVC to barbed fitting to run my media reactors?

What size tubing do most of those reactors run?

Also received my return pump.

Any Idea where i can get this type of fitting?
