Have not had the time to make a full thread on the new tank build but will shortly. Meanwhile we got a new 90g reef and have it cycling away. The plumbing in the pipe to the sump is way too loud. The water is crashing into the 45 degree elbows making it way to loud next to my couch. Doing some research it may be worth switching to a Herbie style. Doing so will render the current rerun pipe as the emergency drain. I would have to plumb a 1 inch PVC pipe up the back of the tank and over the top for a new return.
how would I secure that plumbing so it does not fall off the tank? The tank is now full and I can not move it to attach some clamps on the back.
Or am I just stuck with the loudness of the water crashing in the pipe. I the return pump a Sicce 3 is at the lowest setting.
Ps. Disregard title. Should be loud plumbing into sump. Not loud person……
