The way I do it is cut pieces dry fit to make sure the length is right,and all is fitting,then take apart and glue it back together.

Start with the plumbing of things that cannot be moved first or adjusted. Then start on the plumbing of stuff that can be moved around. Use Flex PVC where you can, it helps.

Thanks for the suggestions, I have never worked with PVC pipe before so this has been very difficult, but now I am all done my tank is plumbed and Thank God it is over. I am very happy with my 40 gallon I can't wait to get my live rock

Also, in addition to these points [^^ Up there ^^] bear in mind, that since you're not the Union Pacific railroad, don't try and meet in the middle.

Establish your "setting out" point, working from the hardest access point, to the easiest.

Plumbing not hard. It's Pretty straight Forward. Then, every once in a while, it throws you a couple curves and quick turns. Buy a PVC pipe cutter and make your life easier.


Plumbing is easy. It's not nearly as hard as Chemistry... or Affording the hobby... or understanding Women! :wildone:
