Hey all!
Two questions:
First, I'm plumbing my Tech 70 finally. It uses two barbed bulk heads through the bottom of the glass. Should I attached a true-union ball valve or use a cam and groove fitting? Not sure which is better:
My second question, is about housing electronics in your stand. I have a DC-8 from the ACJr, an APC 7900 PDU (thanks HiJinks!) and an old laptop w/ a bad screen.
Can I just put these items on a shelf and be done with it, or do they need to be housed in some way. There is a fan cut out on the back of the stand, but I have bought a fan for it yet...
I want to have a really neat stand, but I also want to make it simple for maintenance. I made the mistake with my nano of bundling the wires with zip-ties. It was a nightmare servicing the skimmer, return pump, etc..
