Jason, Have you contacted Hidden Reef about the PVC piece, just ask for Marc and he should be able to do something for you instead of having to do an order from ontario.
Yeah Jason I can't wait to get this all setup and running too. All the threads I have ever read on these all have amazing reviews. And it's nice that the price finally came down to something reasonable aswell. If anybody needs one contact HR and he will hook you up!

I made an adaptor for the metric PVC on my H&S skimmer to our standard PVC. Just take a piece of PVC pipe slightly larger than the metric size and heat it to 200 degrees in the oven. While it's still hot push it into the metric fitting. When it cools you have an adaptor.

Hey Seanoman,
I actually ordered the metric fittings from Ontario. Call me a loon but I like the idea of metric to metric. Of course I paid a lot more for a solution but....

Hey sounds good Jason, just thought I would let you know so that you knew that there was another option. But yeah post some pics when you get it all setup I would love to see it running.
I wont have mine up for about a month or two, because I am just starting my tank build next week. But I am going to be doing a tank journal, so I will have lots of pics there. As far as I know, we are the first in Canada to have received these units, so as much info that we can post will help others aswell. Good luck with the setup!!

I know Ruth has had one or two now for some time. but don't know of anyone else. I'll try and get it up and running next week end. I opted for the cheapest shipping of the metric bits. so I'm not getting them until next week.
I have a lot of other tank projects under way. 1) new floor in the tank room 2) redo all the electrical 3) vent the entire fish room all are under way and I havn't even got the honney do list for this week end yet J

I am building a 6'long 30"deep and 24" tall which I believe is around 220 gallon. It's going to be an in wall setup in our basement which will be viewable from two sides. It will have it's own fish room behind it that will house all the equipment and other goodies.
But yeah I am hoping to start the construction next week and get things going. Then Marc aka Superfudge has been very generous in offering some help with ideas and such, which we are very fortunate for because the guy is a master when it comes to DIY.
