One side of my close loop set-up

[Spinner]

Here is one side of my close loop set-up designed using four pumps with two each half. I will be able to shut down one pump each side at night and still have flow out all outlets
The other side is plumbed the same except its SKY BLLLLUUUUUEEEE.............

While I agree with this statement and think this is the coolest plumbing I've ever seen. I've never had a fellow reefer tell me my wiring or plumbing looked like crap as long as the display tank is thriving. I tend to think of my plumbing from a residential plumbers POV. It really isnt meant to be looked at or shown off. :biggrin1:

Keep the pics coming Spinner. Maybe you will inspire some of us to take more care when plumbing our tanks.

You know Spinner the bar is now set VERY HIGH for when you get to the inside of tank aquascaping. All eyes are upon you now Buddy... lol

To be honest i suck when it comes to fish and corals since i built the systems but didn't aquascape them I am one of those hobbiest that enjoy the building part and could live without the corals and fishlol
This system is built just to play with thats why the 35 gate valves, and 16 ball valves...........A BIG TOY!

Top of the line as usual.
I read that the flex pipe was not to be used in a non flow application. Like when you would turn your water faucet off.
Will any of your spaflex be used in this situation?

 

[Spinner]

I am not sure i know what you mean? Each pump is feed with 2" spa flex and there is a piece of 1 1/2" spa flex going from pump to manifold. With this set up even if one pump is turned off flow with still go through all close loop plumbing. Is that what you mean?
