It's on Billy

Neat build. I was planing on doing similar plumbing to flow maybe 1-2000 gals to a remote sump in another room. Is there a lot of noise with a pvc setup like you have?

thank you

the remote plumbing is only for water changes and top off. I do hear the water coming but once it discharges it just sound like running water out of a faucet.

These babies are in QT and so far all is good.

Hey Paul,

If you want remind me next time I come down and I'll bring my Hanna meter and Lamotte kit if you want.

I got to see Paul's tank for the first time last week. Talk about a beautiful tank... Sooo nice.. The install was amazing. I could hardly see any wires anywhere and the tank was incredibly quiet too. My wife nagged at me the whole way home.. Why isn't your tank like Paul's is all I heard...

THANKS A LOT Paul!
;)

Paul, any new pics???

Mike, not single new pic. I have been dealing with other issues that need attending and then the tank comes last lately as far as the build.

My luck just continues that is bad luck. Coming home from the East coast last weekend a buzzard flew right in front of my truck and I was not going 10 mph . Need I say more.

So you got a new buzzard hood ornament?

Thanks Chris I needed that:)
 
Ok 5 months later the fish that were in QT are now out and reintroduced to the tank. I divided the tank up so the fish can get established with out getting harassed by the others and give them all the presence of each other. The tricky part is going to acclimate the 3 new multicolor angels with the excisting pair.
