    i finished the new overflow & bridge yesterday, i'm giving the Weld-on 48 hours before attempting to work with it. to make the teeth i bought a router bit thinking it would be the best choice but i ended up using my table saw with a standard wood blade, it made the job a lot easier. this is...

    Thanks for the infor Trevor. Yes, i was refering to my CLS, sorry to here about your disappointment in the SCWD. OceanMotion 4 is my first choice, i'm just checking all my avenues. As far as reducing the line size, Sequence actually recommends putting pressure on their pumps, it reduces the...

    Hey, thanks for the support. as of now i'm waiting for a buddy to send me his hole drill bit so i can widen the overflow holes to fit 1 1/2" bulkheads & drill a couple of them in the back wall for the closed loop system.
