In this video we do a DIY deep dive into my saltwater reef tank filtration system. I wanted to make my sump a show piece. Things I used were : Red pvc pipe, pvc elbows, pvc 45 degree elbows, pvc unions, union ball valves, pvc tee pipe, pvc couplings, pvc reducer, pvc clear glue, pvc pipe, Y check valve and more.

Many thanks!! Fun project and worth doing it right the first time. I would suggestion adding more unions and more gate valves for extra flow control and being able to take it apart if needed

Thanks Matt. It was time consuming, but well worth it to me.

[@mattsmonsterfish1615]

@@inventoryking I'm absolutely in love with it, I'm inspired by your build to try on my new tank!

[@inventoryking]

Heck yeah man. Do it. So worth it. I seen that in your vid, Tank was bone dry

[@buytimezasstore666]

Bro you did a really great job I’m in the same journey it’s a lot of work but I love yours cause is a clean job hopefully looks like yours in the end cause everything is so expensive in this hobby so I don’t want to make mistakes 😅 thanks for sharing this wonderful job🎉❤

[@inventoryking]

Thank you!! It was a fun project!

[@DuzzyDobbin]

Great content. What size plumbing did you use for overflow and return if you don’t mind. Great content btw. Regards Duzzy 🇦🇺

[@caewalker9276]

What a great job Paul, I'm a procrastinator, I keep wanting to but never get around to redoing my plumbing. Thanks Pro clear aquatic systems.

[@inventoryking]

Hi Cae, thank you so much! How many tanks do you have?

[@caewalker9276]

@@inventoryking 8 plus 2 little outdoor planter ponds

[@inventoryking]

Nice!

[@adeelshaikh2129]

Good luck brother

[@inventoryking]

Appreciate it

[@pellep4035]

Its looking absolutely amazing. The colormatching is on spot! Im really looking forward to the rest of this build. I really would like a sump aswell on my (freshwater) tank, but sumps arent that common here in Sweden so I guess my fx6 have to due for now =)

[@inventoryking]

Thanks a lot man! I appreciate it. It’s coming together. FX6 is a great option 😁

[@pellep4035]

@@inventoryking Yeah I really like the fx6, but I would love a sump with a refugium in it, I think it looks so nice =) but since the tank is up and running and I dont have the extra tankspace to house the fish, I cant drill the tank for a sump. So I need to figure out some other solution =) maybe an overflowbox or something like that. But since sumps arent used alot over here, its hard to find someone to talk to about it and ask questions.

[@inventoryking]

That makes sense.

[@TheCichlidShack]

Well done.. Very clean.. #OCD lol

[@inventoryking]

Hahaha no doubt brother! #OCD. Thanks dude, it’s getting there.

[@mr.brownplumbing]

1' of head pressure in the top tank is well enough to have all pipes level and plumb. Showcase worthy mannn

[@inventoryking]

Thank you for the info and for commenting! I took a lot of pride in building this.

[@wademedearis6360]

You the man paul. Looks hella good. I learned the ventilation lesson myself painting a stand the other day. Woke up from the paint fumes. Paint all over me. Jk

[@inventoryking]

Thanks Wade!

[@brocksmall1910]

Amazing job dude. Use some silicone for that grommet might work alright

[@inventoryking]

Hey Brock, thanks a lot! And thanks for the tip, I didn’t think of that! 👍🏻

[@gewglesux]

On this episode of "pimp my plumbing".. Playa Paul shows us how to do it..

[@walterr.2619]

I would advise to add marine pure blocks. Looking good

[@inventoryking]

Thanks for the suggestions

[@abhishekdg2185]

Amazing job ! However, if I may suggest - you need to chamfer the pics before glueing :) . It may not seem a big deal now, but it protects your system from leaking in a year or 2 .

[@inventoryking]

Thanks for your suggestion and watching

[@victordiaz5827]

Nice shirt !! Mca

[@inventoryking]

Thanks!

[@kcstunna8222]

Awesome video! You helped me out a ton with this video. Do you have a link for the plumbing and parts you used?

[@inventoryking]

Ronnie, thanks for watching. Here are some links. amzn.to/2spsiZp - True Union Ball Valves amzn.to/2VOGvwF - Y Check Valve goo.gl/JDgdjR - 1 Inch Red PVC Pipe goo.gl/Bntrrz - 1.25 Inch Red PVC Pipe Then I got elbows, 45s, tee, adapters, couplers, etc

[@hkdhrn]

What did you purchase those of the 3/4" to 1" pipe adapters running from the returns?

[@inventoryking]

1 inch return

[@slothbowyer3926]

Are those the same bulkheads that came with the mega flow kit ??

[@inventoryking]

No I got different bulkheads for the drain my from lfs.

[@davidklassen3526]

So the bulk heads you used aren’t the ones that you installed from the previous video you did on the aqueon overflow kits. Why did you change them out? I’m assuming you didn’t like the barb connection and preferred the slip Pvc connection? Just curious on your thoughts?

[@inventoryking]

I like bulkheads with the pvc connector better

[@johnfurious8419]

Looks great... lots of work but worth the payoff

[@inventoryking]

Hey Johns, it’s worth it for sure.

[@MASTERSURGEON04]

HI KING WHERE YOU BY THIS PLUG TO MANAGE THE CABLES THANKS

[@inventoryking]

They call them desk grommets I got it from Home Depot

[@hkdhrn]

Where did you purchase the plumbing for the sump?

[@inventoryking]

The pipe was from bulkreefsupply or Amazon. It’s been a while. The fitting were from my hardware store

[@lisaduarte7534]

How are you liking this sump nearly 9 months later? Is the sump holding up to bowing? I know the acrylic is a bit thin. Looks good.

[@inventoryking]

Hi Lisa, it is a great sump! No bowing that I can see.

[@chargedup5861]

Why didn’t you add more unions on the return pipe going back into the tank

[@inventoryking]

I should have added more.

[@pj2854]

Where did you get your plumbing kit from? I'm picking up the freedom 4-1

[@inventoryking]

I got the 1 inch red PVC from my friend James Largo. And the fittings from Home Depot.

[@pj2854]

Thx

[@inventoryking]

anytime.

[@svenpflug1679]

What lights did you use in tank stand

[@inventoryking]

Can’t remember at the moment. Let me check.

[@svenpflug1679]

@@inventoryking thank you

[@will24s1]

Are all the PVC,unions, ball valves and Y-check valve 1 inch?

[@inventoryking]

The y is 1.5 I think. The others 1

[@will24s1]

Thanks man love your videos. I just got the 4-1 300 yesterday because of your video

[@will24s1]

All i see is a ³/⁴ on Amazon

[@will24s1]

³/⁴ for the Y check valve

[@daltonhardin5682]

Does it run good??

[@inventoryking]

Sure does

[@newyorkhardcoral6831]

I can't lie it is a very clean install. However I have to mention PVC pipe works on a theory of solvent welding. The primer is just as if not more important than the glue. It allows a chemical change in the PVC for the weld to occur. I hope you aren't going to run into future problems because you skipped The crucial step. Fingers crossed for you

[@inventoryking]

Yeah I know. I only had purple primer and I wanted this to be clean. Its been run for over a month, no issues. Good point though

[@whajuwant13]

@@inventoryking they sell clear pvc primer

[@johns336]

Nice. But you could’ve just used clear primer

[@inventoryking]

Hi Dave, I appreciate the tip, I wasn’t aware of that.

[@johns336]

No worries.. I wasn’t either on my first build.. but yep, there’s clear primer right next to the purple..

[@inventoryking]

Sweet

[@yennybudiyono1139]

.iolkk .

[@inventoryking]

huh?

[@maddawgzzzz]

This is not how you plumb. I’ve been doing this for 10 years and this is horrible. I’m sorry.

[@inventoryking]

Elaborate

[@austinschmude3415]

What drill did you use for the desk grommet?

[@inventoryking]

I got 2 inch deck grommets and used a 2 inch hole saw. After you drill the hole use hot glue to glue it in place. Works great.
