Mustang Boy Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 ok i have to place an order to dr.fs for other things so i will be getting another pico 600 pump and i have already modified my pipework for 2 inlets which was an easy task. Link to comment
c_k_kuehne Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Another option would be to put a cap on each end. You could then drill a hole in each cap. That way you still get the same number of outlets just reduced flow from each outlet. Of course the cap sticks out a bit more but you could cut back the T and Cap area with a minimum glue surface so they didn't stick out so much. Just another idea to think about Link to comment

Just another idea to think about yea i added caps to the end of these after testing it like this. i drilled 7-8(i cant make a good pattern lol) small holes in each cap one hole being at the very center and it made almost no difference so im gonna go ahead and order a second pump and i found out you can adjust the inlet on these pumps so when i get both of them hooked up ill play with the adjustment and get it where it feels right then do fine tuning with the flow from the AC30 Link to comment
