Hey all so I’m doing a closed loop system for my new UV light. I need to put a pump in my 125 gallon DT. The pump is 8.2”x3.5”x4.13” I need to use that to feed the UV sterilizer then it’ll flow back into the tank. Has anyone had any success hiding/aquascaping this kind of item within your DT? Any ideas to camouflage this pump if I put it in the corner of my tank?

thanks for looking at my post and any help on this matter.
 
What about magnets to hold it up in the back corner of the tank? Do you have an invisible corner?

If not, it might be simpler just to pile/wall rock in front of the pump/light.

Unfortunately no invisible corner. Great idea with just piling rocks around it. I actually think I’m just doing an external inline setup since my pump can be plumbed both ways.
