iPhone ?!?!?!?!?

[metrokat]

Sigh

[Veng]

iPhone? My condolences.

[metrokat]

I still have my Samsung, I'm going to get the 4 eventually. The iBend belongs to the TS.

[jbb]

That explains alot about the TS

[hypostatic]

Good morning. I thought the iBend would be significantly larger than my Note II.

 

Heh, iBend

Water change pictures

 

Nekkid Kat-ropora

The whole colony is out of the water in this picture.

And the picture is corrupted also, my SD card in the phone is acting up.

 

 

 

Myagi Tort.

 

Slimer, ORA Purple plasma, Leptastrea, Echinata, Reef Raft Jared's Prostrata, ORA red planet, and some others

 

Page quote. I'm going to have to get in line for the Red Planet and the tort, if you ever frag it. Ok. fine, one of each except the Kat and slimer, which I already have of course.

Good afternoon from the Top Shelf of the reef.

[metrokat]

Back to plumbing.

 

Need a barb/adapter/nipple

 

1. That goes from a 1" FPT to a sch 40 PVC pipe.
2. And another one that goes from a 1" FPT to phosban tubing, I think that is 1/2"?

Kat: how did you eradicate the flat worms you once had in this tank?

 

I just noticed the little devils, and before I IDd them they have taken over the entire tank! Should I order a nudi or a 6 line or one guy said he bought a blue diamond damsel...but don't know if I want that......HELP~

Oh mine are back, they were gone for 3 months then hello there happened.

Coris wrasse, melanurus wrasse, springers damselfish, blue velvet nudi. Those are your biological controls for FW.

 

I never saw my 6 line eating them but hey the display is FW free so he must be.

[hey]

So you need a pipe to hosebarb fitting which would look like this: Or do you need the female version of this? And the hose needs to fit 1/2"

I think this will work for application #2. Does it come in gray?

[hey]

Well that 1 inch npt to 1/2 HB is a wierd size, you would probably need an adapter for either the HB end or my recommendation would be the pipe end... lemme see what I can find on US plastics

[hey]

Also this

1. That goes from a 1" FPT to a sch 40 PVC pipe.

fpt is just female pipe thread, sch 40 pvc uses slip fittings and glue, so you are looking for 1inch npt to 1 inch slip?

heres the 1 inch npt to 1/2 inch hose barb:

shows it only in nylon but honestly it will all be unseen as it will be inside the tubing and pipe

These are perfect.

[hey]

These are perfect.

 

hope so, The pipe you are connecting the 1 inch to one inch one has threading inside the pipe right? If not You'll need a 1 inch fnpt to 1 inch slip.

Yes, for the sch 40 pipe. The link you posted was sch 80 sooo....

[hey]

The outside diameter of sch 40 and sch 80 pipe is the same, so a sch 80 slip will fit a sch 40 pipe.

Piggy says that 1in FPT to 1" slip is a union also

[hey]

im lost, did you need an fpt for that one in sch 40?

[metrokat]

im lost, did you need an fpt for that one in sch 40?

yeah

 

But you said they will fit the slip side

[hey]

yeah

 

But you said they will fit the slip side

 

ya I thought it needed to be sch 80 thread fpt side to slip, which the slip would fit the OD of sch 40, so essentially connecting a piece of sch 80 to sch 40.

[metrokat]

I'm missing a few parts, this is not complete and the size of the pictures are off since the images were printed individually but this is pretty much how my manifold will look.

[hey]

looks good, whenever I buy plumbing stuff, I invariably redesign it mid making it and end up purchasing at least 100 extra pieces that I store in boxes because I am too lazy to return them.
