Grizz's 8' shallow sea

[The Grizz]

Thanks Chase, we are holding up ok. Still don't know what is wrong but thing's have improved and should know tomorrow. The wife was exhausted and was able to get some sleep but I was up all night just in case the phone rang and we had to leave in a hurry.

So here is an update.

I started the plumbing for the sump today getting the return line done:





Then I built my durso standpipes for dual corner overflows:




And finally I did the overflow to sump line's:




Next will be the 30w UV that I have to figure out where it will go so it is not in the way of the closed loop I have planned. Still need to find a 45mm & 65 mm glass drill bit that are not to expensive to drill for the loop.

I've gotten hole saws from mops.ca before, they work well and are cheap. I thought I might have a 65mm bit your could have but I went and checked and its 75mm.

Do you think that a 75 mm hole would be to big for a 1 1/2" bulkhead? I could fill in the hole around the bulk head with silicone.

If it were me I would get a 2" bulkhead then reduce it to 1.5" outside the tank if that would work for your application.

I will check to see what I have for bulk head in my stock if I got one that would work. It is for the feed to the pump for my closed loop so going down to 1 1/2" at the pump would not be an issue.

Very clean plumbing. Looks good. No Herbie?
