Yup, didn't want to put hose clamps in the water. The tubing makes a nice snug fit on the barbs so I'm not too worried. Seemed to be fine during the leak test.

Rich, could you provide a link for this group? I can't seem to find them on FB, I'd like to thank them for the honour!

I thought about glass doors, but obviously I want the focus on the display... but I may reconsider.

Nice I'll do the same if I pull the trigger.

$45 for 3 feet shipped isn't exactly cheap and I don't even know if it will solve my vibration issue. It should help I'd think...

It's expensive stuff to be sure, but when used in conjunction with a foam media block under the pump, it solved ALL my noise and vibration issues. I highly recommend!
