Hi Tom, Awesome air pumps iv got the same running, just a little tip, you may want to support the rubber pipe as it goes into the pvc pipe, they run a little warm after a while and where your clear pipe has a slight bend in it you may find it folds over a bit with the warmer air restring the air flow a bit, , looking Awesome so far guys, Richard 🇬🇧

That's a great suggestion Richard, didn't think of that! Thank you I'll probably add some support to make sure the tubing doesn't bend 🙏🙏

Great job guys, looking awesome!!

Hi Sir, Looking great.👍 For maximum air flow you should have made a pvc loop instead of the dead ends as it will have air drop zones instead of constant pressure. Also it's best to get the threaded air valves as these last longer and won't leak air or have any issues as i did with the blue plastic ones.... Additionally if you can try getting 2 replacement nozzle connectors(one you cut) for the piston pumps as with time the heat will cause issues where it's connected to plastic tubing and could also sag restricting air. Plus it needs some support as it bendsand warps over time. Can't wait to see 90 gallon tank fully setup. Maybe you can do a planted scaped tank...

Great advice, I'll keep these noted for the next maintenance. Loop system was not possible due to the layout of our basement. Thank you 🤜🤛

I love the sign ! Great design

Store is looking great. The flexible tubing at the air pump could kink and cause issue. Id use braided or stiffer tubing

Great suggestion Leam, we've got braided tubing as back up already incase the kink does happen 👍

Trying to be the first again! Congrats on the 100 count. Keep growing!

There's many reasons actually, when building a large fish room you want to take all necessary precautions, especially if you can't keep an eye on all the tanks 24/7. For example the air tube could disconnect from the PVC one day leading the air tube to drop and aim towards the floor, causing a tank to back siphon and empty tself. Best to be safe than sorry 👍

Hello sir Iam from india You have joined both the pumps on a single pipeline, there will be no pump damage This is safe for pump life?
