What tends to happen when people figure out they're wrong is they go on and on about something completely irrelevant as a means to justify their original statement. We can't always be right so when we're not we should just cut the BS and admit it

I've found this thread insightful and helped me understand concepts I was completely ignorant of. Mostly the concept of how water height effects head loss, and how water volume does not. My thought process before was more water volume = more weight = more headloss. But it's only water height that does...

Thanks guys

oh....and that 27.2" of water colum equals 1 psi.....that is based on fresh water with a specific gravity of 1.....not the approx. 1.25 of our aquariums
