new ideas kickin,i think im going crazy

[midnight]

ya i thought about sponges but i dont like them for some reason.
and with a w/d i can flow some water and overstock a bit.lol
not to worried about disease,most come from the same waters and i havent seen anything bad in a long time.
and i can picture "the loop"
you have a w/d on all those?

 

[Dr Joe]

At these prices don't overstock, just add another tub.

The gray (or darker) tubs will keep the fish quieter, cut a large hole in the lids and staple some window screen in place to keep the little critters in and let the gasses out.

Those shelving units from WallyWorld can work for you if you change the particle board to plywood or real wood shelves (even slats).(sam's has the pretty chrome ones, we know how fashion consious you are ).

dont need more lol
tanks have lids so it should be ok lol
and you know if i look back i bet your the one that mentioned the pool idea
bought 2 tubs tonight.going back for 2 more tomorrow.
3 for tanks one a filter.
but im not sure how to plumb it now.
im thinking drill a hole in the bottom,
make a diy bulkhead from lowes,
stick the pvc pipe strait up inside.
and under connect the tubs then into one pipe to the filter.
"like in my first pics"
any ideas?

better off with a bunch of sponges,if your collecting better to keep the tanks separate,in case of disease

 

[Dr Joe]

Are you draining directly from the bottom of the tank?

Just account for blackouts that will allow full drainage of tanks unless you raise the drain pipes up closer to the surface.

Miniature overflows made out of 1/2" or 3/4" pvc .

Checking to see if I can upload a paint file...

Well, that was cheezy looking And I doubt that it helps. It is a lousy drawing of the loop returning to the tanks. The loop going to the filter is nearly identical. The water flows the other direction and it is also vented. I wish I had the pictures...

 

[midnight]

cool that helped.wish ya had the pics too.lol
how is you overflows setup inside the tanks?
vented like top 2 corners are open or something?
any ideas on the tupperwares?
sorry for all the questions.
i want to have at least 3 of these tupperwares up and filtering.
im going to miami "again " and plan to bring back a few things to sell.
