You should use a union ball valve, or a union and a ball valve from the bulkhead to the pump. The way it is you will have to drain the last compartment of the sump if you have to remove the pump.

NO BIO BALLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would try to use a slip on hanger that fits over that first baffle - what I also did that I found helpful on my tank is to hard plum the drains right to the highest point of the filter sock (hand tightened so you can take them off when you change the socks), that eliminates splash noise as well.

I can actually make them with the leftover acrylic I have - they won't be spykes polish, but will work for sure.

No too much to work with ,Didi what i can ,A s far as draining or takingoff the pump ,It not a prob.Most valves break or dont work unless you buy the rom a good place ,HDs vavle really sux .after 6 month they break .
No unions to use really,TO take off the pmp ,all he needs is an ellbow and a pc of 1inch pipe in the sump(on the bulk head),to reach above the water ,no water can get thru ,vavles on top will be closed ,turn pump .When you done have much to work with you compermise

hey Sharn you got those pics up fast, thanks.

ronen, great job on the tank.

do you think the bubbles could be fixed by playing around with the durso's in the overflows?

Na ,It mre of the water splashng down into the sump ,creating bubbles.Even past the filter pads and some bio ball so the pad wont get sucked up in thru the last baffle.What we have to do is fine a way to attach the filter socks in the sump ,and have some LR in the sump area,JMO
