thats an autobot visit right there. oh wait, im gonna get one too.well that looks nothing like the pictures we cam up with... but whatever... looks nice.. does the cap have a vent hole in it? cuz i think it needs one to be self starting..? and you might need more/bigger slots..
They are long winded son-of-a-B's,chesterthehero;2235143; said:
but I like the fine tuning and the ease of opening/closing...
it's not bad, like 5 turns from wide open to wide closed,
feels like 50 turns...
She's up and running I think, I gotta keep looking in the Filter to see if the water is flowing...
I like it. It looks a bit like one I have in the works (drilled bottom with no overflow box:
I have a cap with a hole drilled in it that fits over the center part to cut down on the sucking noise (it's like a durso in principle, only in 360 degrees) I took it off because the stupid goldfish keep swimming into the overflow and plugging it. With the cap off they just wind up in the sump.
. Soon enough they will get eaten and I'll stick the cap on.

I was having some thoughts on drilling some ports in the top of mine where the slots are.
If I can locate my taperd drill bit I'm gonna do some porting so I gan get a vortex going on the overflow...
