Did your friend figure out his flow issues??? I see he's using the HammerHead which is a beast trying to tame.....What size drains is he using?

Re: this is how my next tank project will be like,

it looked like dual 1/2". is he running the HH wide open or is it dialed back at all?

Re: this is how my next tank project will be like,

yeah he tried to run it all the way open until he finally realized he had to dial it back i like how he ran lines through air return and everything is in basement in wash room and out of the way. He did have problems for a while getting flow from drains and pumps equalled out but know his tank is doing awesome can't wait to be able to do a full setup like that, i have to use hang on skimmers and fuge.
