How did everyone else attach the Varios to the Red Sea plumbing? Tubing and clamps the way to go?

That's what I did. Used flexible tubing and plastic clamps. Flex tube to keep any vibrations down and the plastic clamps to not have any possibility of rust.How did everyone else attach the Varios to the Red Sea plumbing? Tubing and clamps the way to go?

Just installed mine and I'm going to have to mess around with it. The vibraiton noise is absurd. I attached it using the unions to 1 1/4" then a coupling to screw adapter with 1 inch soft pipe connecting to the Red Sea plumbing. Its quitter than the Jebao whine but now I have drone :/
Hard piped everything, but need the fittings from MM to standard size! Tube barbs and clamps is easiest! Just depends on what route you want to go!How did everyone else attach the Varios to the Red Sea plumbing? Tubing and clamps the way to go?
I do not use a cal reactor but i do use the Apex doser for 2 part. Works great so far.Anyone have Calcium Reactor or Doser recommendations?
I filled my tank with RO/DI water and when it did not leak I added salt. Only problem was having to add sand in tank that already had water. Would have rather added sand then water test.Anyone give some advice about initial fill/ leak testing all the plumbing? Finally about ready for water!
Looks good. Make a build thread so we can follow.So know this post is old and over due but finally got my system up and running! Wanted to post a few pics and didn’t no where to put them so thought I would do so here!

yes you should have leak tested it with hose water, take it out, then added the sand and RO/salt!I filled my tank with RO/DI water and when it did not leak I added salt. Only problem was having to add sand in tank that already had water. Would have rather added sand then water test.
How do I start a thread?
