Going to try to order the plumbing stuff today

I would go with Slip/threaded or even Slip/slip for the bulkheads. Using bulkheads with slip fittings on the flange side makes plumbing and adjusting the plumbing within the overflow box much easier. Obviously order the appropriate barb fittings... I would suggest atleast one section of PVC, ideally you can plumb it right off the sump to make mounting and adjusting a gate valve MUCH easier than trying to adjust the valve that's plumbed just into soft tubing....
If you go the threaded route, I will also suggest threaded paste, most companies do not reccomend using teflon tape on PVC threads. While it can be done, it requires EXTRA careful attention and lots of practice to get right..
Anyone have recommendactions for heaters?
10-4 thanks man I’ll check em outI love my Cobalt Neotherms myself, others might suggest a titanium heater with heat controller as another option.
Haha. I don’t really. It’s called having adhd and not being able to sit stillWhen do you have time to do all this...oh yeah 16 and no limit to time or energy! Carry on!
Better to use teflon thread sealer instead of teflon tape, but still have to be careful not to overtighten the fittings.I have plenty of Teflon tape. Prob have 10 rolls or so just in one toolbox lol
Im thinking of dilling the side and not the back. I feel like it will provide a cleaner look. I love simple clean setupsnope do what you like best
