Btw I am on the road back to Hattiesburg! Link to comment
nano-paul Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Argh, wish I had thought of that while I was building it! Knife valve would probably fit there without having to redo all the plumbing. http://www.underwaterwarehouse.com/PVC-Val...lves-p-785.html Link to comment

Btw I am on the road back to Hattiesburg! Ah nope, I'm in the other direction, half way up I49. But you're in luck! You're in the overnight range of UPS ground so shipping to you would only be $10.

nano-paul Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Or you could make a screw in cap for the inside of the bulkhead if the bulkhead is a thread/thread. That would probably cost less than $3.00 then you could cut and plumb in a valve without draining the sump. I know I am sooo smart.....lol If you are going to redo the plumbing, putting a ball valve on the return side with unions so you can get the pump out probably would be a good idea also. The only way I see to get the pump out it with a hacksaw. lol But I am still jealous of your skillz. It makes me want to take on another project. LOL Link to comment

Eileen Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Lani, what settings are you using when you shoot the close-ups of your fish with your 100mm macro lens? I'm having trouble balancing a speed that will stop the action but still provide enough depth of field. Any tips? I'm using a tripod but I'm still not happy with the shots. Thanks!! Link to comment
