Hello.. I'm in desperate need of some plumbing advice/direction
I've only been in the hobby since January starting with a 28 gallon nanocube. I quickly realized I loved it and wanted a larger tank. This past weekend I purchased a used 60 gallon cube. When we moved it, we had to move the tank and stand together which may have shifted the plumbing around and now I'm seeing a couple drips. Currently the tank is drained and in my garage.
Attached are pictures of the set up including where I'm seeing the drips from two locations
Questions:
1. Is that something I can fix without breaking it all down or should I rebuild to be safe?
2. How does the plumbing look overall? Any recommendations/changes I should make while the tank is empty?
3. It came with two Phosban 150's that can be attached directly in the plumbing, is this good? All I've seen are hanging off of the back or side of the sump and are not connected directly to the plumbing.
Thank you in advance for any advice/suggestions/direction. I've been researching like crazy but feel like I need some expert opinions as I am clearly not up to par with my plumbing knowledge...
