Smokey Joe Posted February 18, 2003 Share Posted February 18, 2003 I'm considering setting up a new tanks, probably a 37g. I'd like to have just one LR tower in the middle but am worried about dead spots as they're really contributing to algae growth in my nano. To remedy this I'd like to have a pump hidden in my tank (behind rockwork) connected via PVC under the sandbed to a spraybar (PVC with holes drilled in it) coming up through the rockwork tower. Has anyone tried this? If so, how do you arrange things so you have access to the spraybar for cleaning. Alternatively, can anyone think of a better design? Or, can anyone direct me to a site with info on this. Link to comment
Wigguh Noony Posted February 18, 2003 Share Posted February 18, 2003 Hm... The ones I have seen were just powerheads connected to a PVC that had an end-cap on one end, and holes in the pipe part...And it was suction cupped to the back of the tank, but it wasnt anywhere near the sandbed...

JDNels Posted February 18, 2003 Share Posted February 18, 2003 I used to have a setup like wigg was talkin about I used a rio dont remember the size, stuck it to the side of the tank in bottom corner pointing across tank a peice of half inch pvc fit right over the pump outlet then i drilled 2 lines of holes at about 45 degree angle from each other and stuck on an end cap I wouldnt cover the pump with LR cuz if it goes out your stuck. But how about that SWEET set up on the mini bow now thats the stuff:) Link to comment
