I haven't added additonal tubing beyond the 2inch extender that came in the box.

Maybe I have that rare subspecies of trochu/agile snail....the acrobat snail.

Hey Gary, what intake strainer are you using for the MaxiJet? The long cone shaped undergravel adapter or the cylindrical strainer? You should be using the second. The cone adapter has too concentrated a suction point.

Beyond that, you got me there...
