allright tomorrow I am redoing the manifold on my tank (got a home depot gift card for xmas) i am gonna do 1inch pvc.
the existing manifold on the tank right now is a mickey mouse rig. right now its half inch pvc and there are only 4 ports (one in each corner).
so what I am gonna do is upgrade to 1inch pvc and I am gonna do a total of 10 ports 5 in the front and 5 in the back they will come down and then i will attach 45 degree elbows on them and angle them in various directions.
Here is the pikel I am in. I CANNOT do an external pump (well I can but I really,really,really,really do not want to drill the side wall in my sump) I have been searching for a good submersible pump and the biggest I could find at a good price is a MAG its rated 3600 gph. Do you guys think this will be enough to get some good movement through the tank???
I am also gonna drop 2 small powerheads in the tank and run them all the way to the bottom and hide them in the rocks to get movement on the bottom of the tank.
I need some input on this. I am gonna order the pump tomorrow hopefully.
what are your thoughts on this??? thanks guys I appreciate it
