Post Any DIY'ers Out There Know Plumbing???

I am interested in setting up a plumbing system on my 55 gal long tank to hide the intake and outtake tubes on my fluvals. I also would like to make a spray bar to cut back on the current. If anyone has any suggestions/links/blueprints please let me know!

You mean drill the tanks, right ?   I am not sure how a fluval would work with an overflow, instead of a syphon which is how it operates normally.    The output would be easy but since you are using a spraybar why bother drilling the tank anyway ?   I am having a hard time picturing your plans - could you provide a drawing of some sort (microsoft paint).

Make spray bar holes slightly larger or add two outlets, such as biowheel 30. I hide my suction pipe of my Eheim with plants, such as Cabomba. I used clear tubes instead of the green which sometimes helps. 8)
