Re: Goodman's 150g
Correct me if im wrong, but doesnt a pipes 'schedule' relate to its wall thickness and also its pressure rating? Not wether its threaded or not?

Yes, it refers to it's wall thickness. However, most schedule 40 pipe seen in hardwares stores is comprised of nipples (short pieces of pipe) that are threaded and used to plumb up systems that have ball/gate valves, check valves, switches, pressure gauges, sediment traps and other assorted things that may need replacement or maintenance so therefore are put together with threaded pipe, to prevent the need for a large number of unions or cthe need to cut the assemblies apart. Most hardware stores do not even stock full 10 foot lengths of schedule 40 PVC pipe. ![]() Current Aquarium(s) Description: 120g SPS Mother Colony Tank, 40 g sump, back wall overflows, 2 closed loop circulation circuits 55X Experience in Saltwater & Reef Aquarium Hobby: 35 years in marine aquarium trade and managing LFS's, 10 years with coral.

Re: Goodman's 150g
Luckily one of my clients is a construction company! Called them up and they had some extra pipe that would work better for me.
Also, tonight I had to rip one of the bulkheads out because it was leaking and it gave me one hell of a time. I just need to find more rock at a good price and im good to go! Oh, and replace the bulkhead. Current Aquarium(s) Description: 12G nano-dx & 24G nano Experience in Saltwater & Reef Aquarium Hobby: > 1 year Other Intrests: Computers, Robotics |

Re: Goodman's 150g
About 11-11.5 inches. A decent amount smaller then yours. The guy i bought her from had an awesome looking golden puffer as well.
