Manifold Design & Question

[BigBoi5680]

This is the manifold I built for my 210 DT.

It will run off of my WaterBlaster 7000 and is designed to feed 2 media reactors, a calcium reactor (all 3 are 1/2" valves) and it has a 3/4" valve for water change. I originally had it suspended over the fuge section of the sump, but the weight is too much. So I was wondering, can I position it like this

Or no!?

Sure, you can position it about anywhere it seems to fit, just fine. Good job, by the way.

Thanks @fragmatic! I looked at a lot of designs before I decided on one, but didnt account for the weight it would add and the support that weight would need I guess! Lol....

Why not make a brace to support it in the orientation you want?

 

[BigBoi5680]

Brace? I'm not against it, you have a pic of one?

 

[Murfman]

I don't but you can take some PVC and just cut a U to support the end that is heavy.

You can also try mounting it to the inside of your stand.
