Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
Nobody likes a Loud Aquarium. It Distracts from the peacefulness of an Aquarium. So I will show you how to keep things silent in your Aquarium. I will also show you my Aquarium Plumbing if you are looking for ideas to plumb your tank.
This is a Step by Step Tutorial showing you the Materials that you will need. I highly recommend that you do not Glue anything. Its not necessary to go it down, you want to be able to make adjustments.

Glad I could help! Congratulations on the new tank!
I've been screwing around with a test tank for a year and I've got perfect silence too... but I've got a PVC DIY overflow. Surprising what I found regarding flow rate limits of various duro overflows. if you wanna see the screwing around, search on my name. I was really surprised at how loud one can be! But also surprised how, if you screw around with it, you'll get things figured out. Nice vid. Thanks mang

Thank You, I actually have some pvc cutters, I do want some of the ratcheting kind. Those are pretty nice. I will pick some up, thank you very much! HAve a good one!
Love the overflow! Blue handle "CHANNEL LOCK" pliers. That is the tool of choice by the Pros that use them everyday. I have used the pliers in the video. Frustrating ease of use. Just a pros thoughts Much Love....COOP.

Question 2ALL ... please. Anyone with this style smooth shiny acrylic overflow box in tank.. does it allow rooted algae growth on it? My 90gal megaflow is matte and the texture allowed briopsis to root all over.. can scrape but tough because the corners are rounded & it still wont kill the roots in the pores unless I drain and peroxide scrub. Not an option. I was thinking of making this exact type overflow box that JUST fits inside mine ... save lil space and squared off smooth acrylic hopefully keeps rooted algae off & easier to clean.
Happy 4th🎉🎉

915Mang Hi Mike, so with a bulkheads, I hand tighten them then did 1/4 turn with a wrench. I wiggled them around then did another 8th turn, so far so good but I have yet to put water in the tank. I'd like to show you my setup so far but i'm not on Instagram.

Awesome Paul, Did you put some RODI water in the overflow? Id do that before I actually fill the tank up with water. My email is 915mang@gmail if you want to send some pics.
Did you have any flow issues with only using the 1 inch piping for the durso? I am contemplating doing the same thing for a 180g freshwater sump and I'm wondering if the flow is going to suffer if the pump is running ~1000gph

Stealth Bobber Mine is quite but the proper durso size should be 1 1/4 or 1 1/2 I cant remember look at the video again I show the proper size. I stuck with 1” because I glued everything. Also don’t glue your durso just dry fit it. As far as flow I use the power heads.
I have the same tank overflow set up from sc aquarium and the sleep is making me NUTS! I couldn’t find a way to fit the drain into the overflow box 🤷🏻♂️
Nice!

915Mang Mike, as far as light mounting, how deep is the lip on the back top of the tank? Would I be able to mount a bracket there?
I was running something totally unique but it didn’t have an emergency drain so it broke siphon one day and shorted a bunch of stuff in my sump so i just disconnected the sump completely...

Slything Well you don’t need to take the bulk heads off. You’re not going to glue the drains to the bulk heads

@@915Mang unfortunately I glued the top drains as well in the return. I realize now how dumb that is as its all draining through the bulkhead.
Is that elbow really necessary? Or it’s enough with just the T ? Thanks

Its necessary to create a full siphon otherwise the siphon will break. Thats why you drill a small hole on top
Your main drain should be 6” lower than your emergency drain, then just let it trickle over the emergency tube.

Tony's reef keeping Awesome Tony! I love a quiet tank, have a good one
You actually don't have a siphon at all. Drilling a hole in the Durso and putting the emergency drain at the same level as the Durso prevents a siphon. Otherwise, looks great!
Pvc cutter is much better and faster than a jigsaw

Those are channel locks not slip plyers
Dude, get rid of the jig saw and invest in a pvc pipe cutter for less than $20 bucks at any home depot. You will get clean cuts. All you're doing with the saw is melting and tearing the pipe giving you those terrible cuts. You will thank me!

Your herbie flow setting totally wrong... Try setting water draining into emergency flow... Then 1st pipe overflow can be silent with no bubble there... Also no goggling... Happy reefing... 👏🏼😁
