Thank you!Very nice setup!
I have been using SCWD's for a long time to keep powerheads out of the display. They work well for me. I use the 3/4" and have had no issues, although I've read of a bunch of failures with the 1" version for some reason, even tho it can be taken apart for cleaning. I keep a spare & swap out about every 6 months & soak the one I took out. I've went as long as a year without cleaning, but 6 months seems to work well. Be advised that they will cut into your return flow gph quite a bit, to the tune of like 40% or something like that! I also do the mod where you drill out the input/outputs some to help minimize this and use an oversized pump. I'll keep using them, cheap way to create random flow! Any more questions, let me knowHow are you liking your SCWD? I am thinking of using one my self..
Thank you very much on the input , it's really making me consider getting one. Will it even reduce the output of your return pump even if you drill into your aquarium , vs going over the rim of your tank like you did ? Due to the fact that you used the black output pipes . How much strong of a pump would you recommend on ? If I am planing to run a SCWD.
No, you'll have to google it. That's how I found it, pics and all.OK , do you have any pictures of the process i would like to see if you do?
Thank you very much!Wow, thats amazing! Love the new tank!
Thanks! Yeah, I like this look, kinda open & nothing going on the sand in this tank. More swimming/negative space.Very nice build, really liking the aquascaping with the 3 bommies.
Thanks. "SCWD" stands for Switching Current Water Director.This tank looks awesome! I love clean looking tanks. What does scwd stand for?
