Show off your PVC plumbing skills

[Reefinny]

Well I have to say there are some really nice builds here. I am getting ready to expand and upgrade my system and being I am working with a running system I went and purchased a new sump. It's clear and white with red trim, I am going to use red PVC and Gray fittings.

Definitely using some of what I have seen in this thread!

I will post pics and a build thread when the time is here.

Here is a shot of my saltwater mixing station that will be hard plumbed to my sump, so I can do my automated water changes!

I made this bubbling lamp out of PVC. Does that count as a plumbing PVC skill? I mean, it has water in it and that water has Metheline blue in it so it doesn't have parasites.
The water valve turns it on.

are you painting your pvc or did you buy it like that? If you are painting it, what do you use?

BRS sells many colors at a good price point

Are these gate valves from Zoro? How are they working?

Actually, I bought them from Bulk Reef Supply and they are made by Spears! Since that picture above, I am redoing my entire mixing station over with new Ace Moto Vertical storage containers instead of using those Brute cans.
Ones it's all completed and will sort of look like this one I found on this forum.
Also, instead of the Gate Valves, I used on my mixing station that you commented on I will be using Cepex Ball Valves, just like the ones in the pix that came in today instead.

My Equipment list everything in 3/4'':
4 - Sch 80 Tee's
6 Cepex Ture Union Ball Valves / Slip x Slip
2 Couplers
4 Sch 80 Unions Slip x Slip
2 Banjo Male & Female

2 Sch 80 90 Elbows
2 Schedule 80 Straight Barb x Male Thread
3 Bulkhead Schedule 80 Slip x Thread
InkBird Temp Controller & Probe
Pinpoint Salinity Monitor
2 - 25 gallon Ace Moto storage containers
PanWorld PX40 water pump
