One of the best surfaces that is completely flat. Very important when assembling of acrylic parts. IIRC there are 4 of these in the shop. 2 Quote Link to comment

No rush but for an art project idea Send me an email. Let me know what sized flat rate box and I'll fill it up. They may have one side with masking removed. They may have both sides still on. I use them on top of indoor planters. Quote Link to comment

inTank Posted November 3, 2017 Author Share Posted November 3, 2017 We still make quite a few pump upgrade kits for the Red Sea Max 130 and 130D. Problem is we buy bulk hose and it comes rolled up. Hose sections with bends will cause the pumps to vibrate on the chamber glass so we need to straighten the hose as much as possible. We started with boiling water. Then moved to a heat gun. All took a ton of time and attention. Late at night when making a bottle for inTank JR. a faster and more hands off solution came to light.
