Looks good.

I do have one suggestion, though - It's something that I'm trying in my tank. I've plumbed a couple of supply lines in and under the rock piles to hopefully create an overall "outflow" of water from underneath.
I'm not too concerned about the direction of the nozzles, just that they're not blocked by any one rock.
From what I understand, the rocks are shedding a fair amount of junk.
I dunno, maybe you would want to try that next time you think of altering your plumbing.

Mitch- Sounds interesting, can you show any pics? Are these sump return lines or are they closed loop outlets? I'd be worried about sump return lines down low unless there was a siphon break near the water line.

Tony,
They're sump return lines, and I've got a hole drilled just below the water line to break the siphon in case of a power failure.
I might be able to post a pic tonight, if I get back in time after trying to vote Klein out of his comfy seat...

Mitch
