This project needs some progress first before pictures. Hope to start the plumbing this week now that I have the proper gate valves I ordered.

Managed to get some of the overflow plumbing done tonight while I only had the complete use of one shoulder, stressed the right shoulder to much working & now it's EXTREMLY painful. Finish it up tomorrow night & take a few pics.

Ok so after a copious amount of pain dullers I managed to get 99.99% of my dual bean animal overflows dry fitted ( not glued yet ) just to make damn sure I have it te way I have in visioned. So enough yak yak yakin, here's some digital images.
