    Yeah I didn't think about just replacing the 90's on the returns Lol I think I have em but not sure if I have threaded ones for the locline. That'll quiet it down a lot. But the whole dumping thing really needs to stop. It sounded a lil better this morning, but then again I could have just...

    Well the tank is fully operational. Just have to quiet it down some and I'll be set. Hopefully all my coral and fish make it. But I think I put in a good 12hrs today so I am going to beddddd... So exhausted

    I was originally going to then decided against it bc I had little to no experience with it and no one to physically walk me thru it. The standpipes don't move up and down, they just cut to length and stuck on there. I know what you mean though, my old standpipe did that. These ones don't...

    I know why its creating a wave. The right overflow box water level keeps going up and down every few seconds, above and then just below the siphon break

    Any idea as to why my drain on the right occasionally dumps out a ton of water and creates a wave? I have 2 45's and it dumping down on a slight angle. Its like every 3 seconds, major bubbles come out? Also, the return lines at the top have what I thought was a siphon break but its spitting out...

    Okay so the tank is almost filled. Hopefully the plumbing is good. Everything is glued in, just gotta wait for all my numbers to be right then move everything over and flip the switch and look for leaks. I'm definitely doing my scape another day, I am so beat from today.

    Ok well I have to run 2 separate drains now due to the stand being in the way. Is there any downside to having a drain dump in the return chamber?

    Awesome thank you Kevin! Got the tank up now! Starting the plumbing part now :)

    Ok the idea of the 2 inch drain we discussed earlier won't work? With teeing it with a 2x2x1?

    I don't see how you can say it WILL flood Lol and what's "eventually" to you? I appreciate your input but I'm all set up to run it this way now. I have this day to do it and that's all unfortunately :/. My tank is drained and plumbing is ripped out. Lil too late to change my plans now lol

    Good point but there's not really much I can do, the bulkheads are 1" and I don't really have all that much room to be going full bore 2" ya know?

    Yeah I was gonna do the Herbie method but then decided not to. Dont have ANY experience with it and plus these stand pipes that came with it look better than the normal ones. Should be quiet enough.

    Okay awesome, I'm glad I can do one drain. Will definitely free up some space in the first chamber.

    Oh so you're saying if I just open up the pipe going into the sump then it should be okay? BUT do they make tees like that? Go from 1" to 2"?
  19. Sobo's Reef

    Dan's 150 Rebuild

    Okay that's fine. So I'll just run 2 separate drains, no biggie. Thanks guys
