Putting this under beginner as it is my first sump build.

 

I have all plumbing pvc glued together. What's the ideal wait time before running water thorugh it?

 

I've seen all sorts of answers online so far from 1 hour to 24 hours....

 

Thoughts?

Depends on what you used to glue it. I think most of the pvc adhesives are mostly cured in about 15 min, wouldn't hurt to wait a day though.

Shit 20 min, cuz ain't nobody got time for that

 

But in all seriousness I usually do only wait about 20 min then start running water or stick it in my tank.
