Next time you think about buying one of those, you may want to get either a clear one, a clear true union one, or clear wye style one.

yeah I have thought about that since installation. Kinda wish I had..
Oh well once we move the plumbing will be dismantled and redone, possible plumbed into a basement, along with a frag tank (a small one for the time being)

The dream is eventually to do a nice 6Lx3Wx2H(270ish gallons + sump) in wall viewable from the front and one side pain, with everything enclosed into a room, with a nice large sump & skimmer as well as a frag tank around 50-75 gallons...


Hey a guy can dream right?

You could make it serviceable with threaded fittings that you could unscrew I believe.

What I meant was the union-style ones can be easily removed and cleaned out, plus the clear ones are useful for visual assesment.

It's definitely a good fail safe to have I know cause i already had one power outage, when we move AMD I re do the plumbing every thing will be serviceable. Overkill, yes but better safe then sorry
