anyways avalon, how many holes would you say is best in the pvc, i mean how large should they be and what should the distance be between each of them?
The amount of holes will depend on a few things, such as the flow rate on your powerhead and size of holes, as well as how much pressure you want. You can use a #40 drill bit, or something close to the size of the holes on any spraybar. As for how many holes, that will be something you may have to experiement with. Be sure not to drill too many holes at first. It's easier to drill more later! I would say try to keep the distances between them equal.
