Re: bean animal help!

[Steve 01]

Hi
I m trying to get my head round bean animal system set up.
Tank is 4'x2'x2' I wish to use coast to coast weir across the back of the tank, I m going to use 25mm internal diameter 31mm outside diameter pipe work, not sure how you figure out the hole positioning in back of tank for the primary (hole lower / clearance height up from bottom of coast to coast weir) then the positioning of the secondary and emergency in relation to the primary hole ( my thinking these need to be higher?!)
Am I overthinking this!
Not sure what offset is required or how to figure out hole measurements!

Also hole size for bulk head tank connectors I think require a 34mm hole?

Any advice greatly appreciated

Thanks

This covers the primary options. I use a Herbie myself and it rarely makes a peep.

The holes in the glass are just to get water through the side of the tank and can be in line. It is the pipes you attach to the bulkheads in the holes that make it work.
