Decided to go with a proprietary pump for the UV...less connections on the main Pump means better reliability.

The UV is 18Watt, and I need the Dwell time in the housing, so I decided to use a ML 660 powerhead rated at 170gph...
I might add, of course Silicone J suggested this last week before I bought all the plumbing and realized how it could compromise the system...
Thanks Bro! told you I was a hardhead sometimes. So it will be on a switch of it's own to run the powerhead and UV light.

I am doing the wiring diagram now and will have it up for scrutiny shortly...

20 x 20 = 400 - .125" holes in the drip plate 1" centers

I want to thank PhullTank57 for all his support today... as always his expertise and experience was benificial in getting this much done...Thank you for reaching those places that needed reaching, as you can see my Vice grip hands are good for some things and Doomed for others...
I'd have to admit, the coffee wasn't as strong as the other day, but it sure was hot and tasty. Maybe tomorrow we can get the holding tank thing situated if you ever get your water changes done...:D
Oh Yeah, And I'll make the coffee...;)

Not a problem bro... always willing to lend a helping hand! :headbang2
But I'll tell you what,,, we better get this thing a-moooovin' soon, like Pronto!!... Or the old lady just might have me a-sleeepin' outside with the fishes too?!! :nilly: :tropicalf :uhoh: :goldfish: :nilly: jus Jk! :D ;)


Also btw, let's be sure to do and make all the required cuts we need to do with the PVC/Plumbing, during the DAY...Don't really want to be using the miter saw during the middle of the NIGHT again, making all that racket, waking up and disturbing the neighbors!! :swear::grinno: :eek3: :D

"Silicone J", "Drill Bit Wet J", "I Told U So J",,, Etc. I have a feeling by the time we reach the end of this project, I should have a few more other names, as well?!! :D
