burky_tc Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Ya I think I will have plenty of room to move stuff around and get to frags. I am undecided what I am using for powerheads. I am splitting the return into dual locline. I have 2 K-nanos laying around so I may start with them. My plan is to raise one piece of egg crate off the bottom an inch and notch and area for them to sit to create turbulence along the bottom. I have been contemplating a spray bar that would supply the flow to the upper part of the tank. Link to comment
callmesaul8889 Posted December 2, 2009 Author Share Posted December 2, 2009 i need to get my koralias still and i dont want to misjudge what to use.. ive never done any plumbing before so that should be interesting, know of any guides or anything? i saw an ad for a hydor flo which looked pretty cool, i might invest..

burky_tc Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 What do you need help with plumbing wise? If its just the basic glueing and such someone at the local hardware store could probably give you a quick run down. As for the hydor flo I have heard of them getting gunked up overtime and quit spinning. I think K1's would be pretty good for that size or maybe a few nanos. Link to comment
callmesaul8889 Posted December 2, 2009 Author Share Posted December 2, 2009 no i can handle the glueing and what not, im just not sure where to get all of the elbows and connectors and such.. like the flat tips, i have no clue what that's even called lol Link to comment

burky_tc Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Well I got the lighting all mocked up and now just need to paint the pvc structure, add some more eggcrate racks and paint the eggcrate. Oh yes and I need to pick up another stick of pvc. You will notice the pvc in front of the stand is wierd. I didnt have anymore pieces long enough so I used what I had for now. Here is a quick shot. You get the idea Link to comment
