That is a piece of 1/2 styrofoam that will be replaced with a full 8' sheet when I pull the sump out to install the baffles.

It has been a challenge, I was going to use some 1" flex hose instead of all the 45* elbows but when I realized I was able to hard pipe it I was much happier with the out come.

Coming alone nicely though, the plumbing sure looks pretty.
The more valves the more control, I can cut the flow off in many areas for servicing the pumps or the check valves. Once everything is glued and straightened it will look just the way I have in-visioned it.
