return nozzle?

Snelly40 · 02-12-2007, 07:34 PM

hey guys, so i got my 90g AGA tank yesterday and started to assemble the megaflow kit that came with it. the overflow was easy but the return is where im stumped, sorry if im just stupid, but the return nozzle now comes with a 2 nozzle return. I attatched to one end to the elbow and poked out where the 2 nozzles should rest, but there doesnt seem to be a way to get them in those spots????????
if anyone know what i mean, please help

What happnes is that the threaded piece screws into the elbow, that protrudes out 1 of the cutouts for the return line. You then attache the loc-line style returns to that. What I had to do was come off the threade piece a short distance and then put the "Y" connector in to bring the return around the front of the overflow. This required the purchase on an extra length of the return tubing.

Be aware that they are not true Loc-Line returns. Look on the pieces to get the name, it escapes me right now. The loc-Line will work, but the joints don't fit together tightly so it doesn't hold it's position well. I ended up zip tying it to my overflow to hold it up.
