I thought you've had that ritteri longer than 1 year? Did you have it in your 40g before? Or am I mistaken?

Sorry for the way late reply. I’m not getting notification on replies.

Tony – yes your right, I have had it for just over 2 years.

Lando – I don’t have any heat issues at the moment, I have considered that.

For a CL I am running a Dart, I don’t have it on any timers or pattern changers. It’s just a steady flow from right to left 24/7. It seems to work, I think I’m getting good growth, color and PE. I do however adjust the nozzles every few months.


Here are all the pieces all laid out.




The intake.






Manafold




The intake just goes over the top of the tank and the manifold is just above also. This way I did not have to drill any holes in the tank.


Intake




Manifold






I just used some locline fittings that screwed into the PVC fittings on the manifold.

Wow fantastic photos Bill! Your side equipment storage cabinet puts me to shame Its so organized and well thought out. Makes me want to redo my setup.

Hey Bill, that last pic of the side tank shot with the multiple locline returns looks sweet. Gives me ideas for my next tank..
