    It may work. I would personally just use a wood cutting hole saw for acrylic. No need for a diamond bit. Just go slow. Too fast and it will get too hot and start melting the acrylic.

    Nice! BRS has the fittings if you can't find them elsewhere. http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/mur-lok-male-npt-x-push-connect.html

    Looks right. Lowes or the depot usually have the push connect fittings. I'm not much of an online shopper so I'm no help finding it online

    55 Gallon RR - My First REEF Build

    Looks great! Welcome to the club. Lots of friendly people here willing to give good advice. If you ran your ro from the basement to the upstairs I would double check the ratio of "Good" water to waste water. Ideally you want about a 4:1 (waste:good) ratio. The extra head pressure may affect...

    I should add that you will need a locline male adapter as well. 1/2"x1/2"

    For the locline get a slip x thread 90 1/2"x1/2" For the ball valve you will need a threaded reducer bushing (1"slip x 1/2" thread) and a 1/2" thread x 1/2" push connect fitting. If I remember correctly you're using the BRS reactors.

    Jebao DC 9000

    I'm using the 6000 internal. Been running since I set my tank up in December. So far so good. I love the "soft" start, it's dead silent and moves a ton of water for such a small pump.

    May Meeting Announcement

    Hopefully I'll be able to make it. And if you still have contact with willie tell him I want a real everlasting gobstopper. Not the pseudo-jawbreakers that seem to be less and less everlasting over the years.

    I need a strange size "tank"

    It reduces air bubbles into the sump and also stops the splashing noise from the discharge

    Kschweers rebuild. 57g rimless

    Thanks man. Really need to step up the stocking. Still feels so empty. Just trying to be a bit more selective than I have been in the past and only get the things I really want.
