I am sure I am not the only one driving myself crazy with plumbing my tank/sump? Do you guys try and make it perfect? Maybe too perfect? I am driving myself crazy, making sure it all spaced perfect, and all level on each section? Do I really need to do this? I spent like 3 hours yesterday on just one drain line trying to make it perfect. LoL

:eek:o_O;Clown
 
I'm in the process of doing the same thing ... worrying all the time about spacing and fit. I keep reminding myself that flexable PVC and unions is my friends.
 
I do what it takes to get it there. Ive seen so many that's a work of art. My buddy ripped his stand apart to make it perfect. Basically built his stand around his plumbing.

I am glad I am not the only one, but also driving myself crazy, and thinking I would like to enjoy my tank as well before I am too old LOL from doing plumbing
 
Get it there first. Than you can get bored one day and redo it.
 
As long as it flows downhill, I'm not worrying too much about the particulars
