nah, no eggcrate! my sand bed is thick in the middle to the back! i just set the rocks in and push them down till they were settled. im positive they will stay! ive been doing that for sometime now! how are them brichardi's lookin? are they as good as the wc's at pk? still debating on getting a few! cuz they are bad!

yeah thats what i do with no eggcrate. well they are just the regular brichardis not the wc dafodils, i thought you said you liked the normal ones better when i told you pet kingdom had nice daffodils. and i will check what we just got in hopefully tomorrow
Not to be a jerk but I see MAJOR FLAW in your plumbing design! I haven't read through the whole thread, so I don't know if this was addressed somewhere else but:
If your Fluval breaks or stops working you are going to have to drain almost the entire tank to take it out and fix or replace it. You should have put some shutoff valves in-line before the Fluval shutoff valves. You can get threaded PVC valves, put male barbed fittings in them and place them in the tygon before the Fluval. That way you can shut them down to keep water in the tank while removing the entire filter without having to leave the top of the Fluval in place.
