Dustin Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 Ok, helping a freind design a reef tank. I am also wanting to know as well, since I might be upgrading sometime myself. Me and him both really like the idea of the SCWD (it changes the direction of water, from one input, into 2 tubes and alternates between them both) the only problem is, how do we get the return lines back into the tank. On my tank right now, I pretty much just have the return sitting on the lip, tied to my plastic hood. I hate! this. when I want to work on the tank, I have to turn off the pump, and i cant remove the hood all the way. I keep seeing these black tube things, that look segmented or whatever. How do they go onto a tank? I want something that can run, not tied down, unless its to the tank, or back wall. any ideas? Also, could I drill two holes in the tank, put a bulk head, and have nothing internal, just a hole? That would really be best for . Link to comment
ELGORDOINAVW Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 why not use locline??? what i did is connect two 90 degree pvc elbow creating a "u" that holds itself to the tank- oh yeah the elbow inside has threading so you can screw the mpt locline connector. Link to comment
Dustin Posted July 31, 2003 Author Share Posted July 31, 2003 ok, my thought was to just use the bulkhead, put a small peice of PVC intiside the bulkhead, and stick the locline in that Link to comment
