I'm not sure what forum to post this question in so moderators please move if I'm in the wrong location.
I just received a new Reefer 350. It came with the dual return nozzle and what appears to be updated plumbing on the return line. The barb and tubing included is only 5/8" ID.
I already had a Sicce Syncra SDC 6.0 pump. Unfortunatly this pump only comes with a 1" and 3/4" barb fittings. So, I replaced the Red Sea barb with a 3/4" sch 80 straight barb with male threads and used a 3/4" braided vinyl tubing. It appears that Red Sea was using 3/4" male threads with a 5/8" barb and used an adapter back to their metric plumbing. I may be wrong.
My Question: Will this be okay? This is my first sump set-up so I'm a newbie. Always had AIO's before.
Thank you!
