Pharoah I love the Tanks in an arch unique and allong the lines of an idea I've had but to green to do it. I always wanted to do that but it be one tank up over and back down with a 40" plasma in the middle of it I know its a little beyond what you did but I love to see the layout it looks awesome

In reality that was just a quick notion. I realized that after I had built the two stands, there was enough room to fit a 30L. So I just screwed 4 pieces of wood together and set it on top of the two stands.

Thanks everyone! I have one more wedding event for part of today, then I am home working! I got to get some work done before tomorrow!

Okay, I tested all the overflows, and only 1 of the 6 check valves worked. So I re did the silicone on the overflows. I am going to let it dry for a while and test them out again.

If that doesn't try PVC cement. I've had good luck using it to attach check valves.

Okay rocks gathered! I washed and they are drying. Tomorrow they will find their new home. Threw in one of the mbuna window in current setup... awaiting drying!

you stole my rocks!!!

I want them back...

looken good so far, I hope the check valves work out for you. I would hate to see the mess of all those tanks back filling into the sump during a power outage...

They are suppose to drain back when the power is out. I am sure it will be fine. The trouble is losing the siphon and the pump overflowing all the tanks!
