My return is hard plumbed to the tank. I just prefer a soft coupling to the PVC. I hope that makes sense.

Yeah that makes sense.

 

[dantimdad]

Yes, that's first base. HAHAHAHA!

 

[Scurvy]

I'm 99% sure the jaebo pump came with a multitude of different sized adapters for hard plumbing and tubing. I wouldn't buy anything until the pump arrives and you see what you get.

Loved the Shedd! Need to go back and catch Aquashella at the same time!

I can up for aquashella last August. That I when I dropped over 10G On aquarium and gear from saltwateraquarium.com. Bought my WaterBox PP 230.6 that day 2 MP40’s, three radions, two vortech returns, nous skimmer, frag kits and so on.

I had been researching it and was hoping to get a discount and got 10% off even the MAP items that day.

SHEDD TODAY!! Hope it is as good or better than the one I visit often back near home in Covington, KY “Newport Aquarium”.

Not spoiled at all...

She has just about taken control of everything in our small living room and most of the rest of the house. She gets about four bursts of unbridled energy each day. We need to be prepared, because it is something to deal with. So far she has not destroyed anything significant, so we are thankful for that. . I hope you have a better day today.

Cuts down on noise for me

I started one on hear hen couldn’t find it. I have been taking pics along the way and documenting it. Been posting them on IG. I’ll check more when I get back to my room where the thread went. When I was doing that at the beginning it felt like I was posting to a black hole and nobody ever answered any questions so then I just went searching for threads that answered my questions I had. Lol. I was lonely. Bwahahaha. I am just getting past the diatom stage. I think I survived the GHA and I did the three month BRS cycle before adding anything and cycled my rock in ahead of time starting from scratch with reef saver dry rock.

Why do I picture y'all in suits strutting the catwalk now?

Did someone say "catwalk?"

Bwahahaha...

 

[crusso1993]

Nice knowing you all ;Hilarious

@crusso1993 , I am bidding on you big guy.

I have your back and always will!

 

[crusso1993]

I don't see why not.

I am using 3/4" but 1" will work.

Make sure you don't hard plumb to it. I use silicone tubing from Amazon (MUCH cheaper than BRS). It does a few things: Dampens vibration which makes it dead quiet, gives a little flexibility if the plumbing isn't exactly right and makes removal of the pump easier if you don't use a union right at the pump.

Plus, if it's in a busy area and the tank gets bumped a lot, allows plumbing to move a bit.

Lonely? Sounds like you need a new set of friends!

Yes, @tdlawdo hang out with us. We are the cool kids anyway.
