thanks Lance....I know its not as fancy as some peoples plumbing, but I tend to lean towards the KISS approach.....I did add a bunch of unions to this build for ease of cleaning (or de-snailifying) and dis-assembly....

That thing is HUGE!!
you just werent looking hard enough......

and were you talking about the tank or the skimmer?



so its taking some time to get the thing full of water because Laurie has to balance her weekly water change schedule with making RO for my tank......her RO unit and water storage tank are in a crawl space about 36' away from my tank, so here is what she came up with so she wouldnt have to hump water out of the crawl space.....I imagine that this is what I will use to get water back in the tank after a w/c...


follow the hose, it always knows








and finally where it ends up and where the tank sits water wise ATM

Ya it's going to take awhile to fill with only RO but I'm working on it. The 40 foot hose definitely helps!
