Crakeur Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 for those of you with spray bars, where did you get them? I have been trying to find something on the net that will work for me and haven't found squat. Link to comment
spectre Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 made my own.. 1" PVC in a tee configuration. Drilled holes parallel to the water surface, and at 90 degrees from water surface (circulation behind LR). NOTE: this is on my 125 Gal. HTH Link to comment
spectre Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 almost forgot... This bar is submerged. so I also had to drill an anti-syphon hole right at the water's edge in case of power failure. Pumping close to 1600 gph through this, no need for powerheads. I would think the same thing can be built for a nano (I have a 20 gal). I just haven't gotten around to it on mine. Link to comment
Crakeur Posted October 11, 2002 Author Share Posted October 11, 2002 was hoping to avoid a diy job as I tend to go overboard, try and do way more than I am capable of and end up buying something that works better in the long run. Thanks for the info. Link to comment
lil reef Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 I bought mine at the LFS it is for a Fluval canister. It is in the tank now but I believe it is 1/2" Link to comment
cvarcher Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 Crakeur,if you come by and see my tank Ill give you a spray bar.I have one in the 15gal nano powered by a small rio.Its set up on a timer every half an hour for 8 hours. Link to comment
MrConclusion Posted October 12, 2002 Share Posted October 12, 2002 Look for someone selling German canisterfilter parts from Eheim or Fluval. They are available in a number of sizes. Eheim spray bars are even green colored, so the algae knows where to go. Link to comment
