OK!
Did you all know that the Cannon Rebel XTI doesn't do video???
Anyway, we got some still pics.
Here is the plumbing of the CL pump:
The piping in the back, all connected up:
CL running - Front:
Side view:
I had to pull the CL pump out, take the housing apart and fix the gasket. It wasn't seated correctly so it was leaking between the housing pieces. We also found one 3/4" pipe in the back that was missing purple.
I glued that piece in and it's all good now. Of course, the pressure will be higher when the head pressure is removed for the pump. In other words, when the tank is full, there won't be any head pressure and the pump will just be moving the water so the volume will be higher than this. I also haven't installed the locline nozzles yet because I wanted to get an idea of the flow. I'm thinking that a single nozzle on each hole should be enough. I also figure that if I find that it's not enough flow, I'll get another hammerhead and plumb it inline with the existing hammerhead and double the flow but I really don't think I'll need it. I'm not planning on SPS.
Right now, the tank only has around 80g in it. I figure over the weekend I should be able to add another 160-200. I think I might go ahead and move the cycling rock from the 55g tank into the 450 before I add anymore water. I'll use those rocks to sit on the bottom and the structure will be built on top of those. These rocks are really big pieces so they'll work perfect for that. Then I can go ahead and dump the sand in too.
Ok, so I won't get to relax TOO much this weekend...
