It should be 4-5' of 1"spaflex up from the pump to the OM. (3/4" after)
45's to the first hole, which should have another 45 (then some lockline in the tank)
Hole 2: (going with jim's idea, having the left right effect) 90 up, one foot of pipe, 90 across the front of the tank (20"), 90 Down into the tank (and some lockline)
Hole 3 and 4 reverse and repeat, but add 2' each to get the pipes to the other side of the tank.
One of these days I'll learn how to cad plumbing and just draw the pic!
I had a Mak 4 and it was pretty noisy. What's the quietest external pump for the closed loop. If I go with the closed loop, I can get the ehiem for the return.
They don't make an Ehiem big enough to do both the return and the OM.
