600 Gallon Upgrade Build

[Newbie Aquarist]

I downsized from 1 1/2" pipe to 1" Sea Swirls and have been very happy with the results. Also...you will save a big chunk of change.

Thanks Jim for chiming in. :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Glad to see you posting. I know that your mind is active then. LOL

I put some more pictures up for you to 'not' see things in.

Yea I had lots on the brain until Thursday. Posting is such a stress relief. Guess I better check what not to see things in then.

The pain medication they gave me wasn't helping along with me not being able to utilize the bathroom properly if you know what I mean. Plus they had to glue my incision again because of some extra leakage. All is good now.

Parameters are looking real good Wayne. Sorry to hear about the complications.

Get well soon man
