Happy Wednesday Reefers!

Today we've got two new #AskBRStv episodes for you and this one is from Ryan's Instagram where he showed off the latest Theiling Compact Rollermat and how we plumbed it under the BRS/WWC Red Sea Reefer 750XXL. :)

Quick answer, nope, no conversions needed! I'll show you why.

How did you connect the 2 drain lines to the rollermat? in the red sea tanks many people utilize the second drain to prevent the gurgling sound. I have a red sea 525XL and plan on getting the this rollermat.

We connected the primary drain line to the roller mat and re-routed the emergency drain to another part of the tank. We did have some metric plumbing laying around, but to convert from Red Sea's metric to the rollermat (US Standard) plumbing we do have adapters https://www.bulkreefsupply.com/metric-to-standard-pvc-adapters.html
