thanks just wondering because of the cemicals in the stuff, I have some here, I am going to use flex pipe you don't have to use 90 degree corners cuts down on back presure.

I have two 250gph return pumps and that will also cut do on the workload you don't have to use a T conector and posibly get uneven flow. Picking up my Protien skimmer from my Aunties this week end. She was nice and let me send it to her beach cottage in Washinton.

2 more pieces of glass to install in the sump and then I will have a small 15g sump. It will work fine for now till I find a larger one I want or will make one my self.

Thank you,
Bill
