Lunchbucket, I would offer you increase the intake a bunch. I'm running a 3" intake over the top of the tank to a 2" intake into the pump and I get plenty of flow.

I'm thinking you may starve your pump.

Very Nice Lunchbucket!
I finally got my camera back today & can't wait to take some pics of my 4 revolutions. I think I am going to order 3 more.
SO I will have a revoultion @ every outlet except for the spray bar.

Paul these things are great!
The wife & kids spent hours just watching them go up & down, when I first installed them.
Also the one that I mounted upside down works great, I thought I was going to have to put some weight in the cup, but I didn't.
It works great as is.

I will post some pics tomorrow, depends how I feel.
I have a dentist app. @ 9am to remove my wisdom teeth!
Lots of fun!!!:o
 
Here are some pics on how I plumbed my 4-way unit:

This is in my testing stage. I had to make sure the unit was not leaking before I would mount it to my tank.

Typhon, nice plumbing. I also like your MH fixtures. Are they DIY? Could you please explain them a bit?

Lunchbucket, your plumbing looks great too. Glad you got the 4-way plumbing all figured out so you can come help me with mine in a couple months.:D
 
Ahhhh more pics to steal for the gallery, Sweet looking set up!

Glad to see you got it up and running...

Lunch did you ever try to dye PVC, try "Rit" dye.
 
Hammerhead it's never too small.
Unless your a female!
The great thing about these units are that you decide what size pump you want to run.
You can run anything from power head(100 gph) to 5000 gph & then some!!
I love my 8 way! I am running about 1200 gph
Paul for President, oh ya he's Canadian Paul for Prime Minister!!!
LOL
 
hammerhead:

The 4-way unit is running on my 75g tank..

Travis:

Thanks.. and yes the MH are DIY. They are actually PFO mini pendants mounted on top of my canopy only allowing 1.5" of the pendants to sit inside the canopy.. If you want more info on the lighting or my canopy.
