    Saltwater Plumbing Help Needed!

    I have valves coming and going. I like the idea of being able to shut it down in an emergency or maintenance situation. I'm not sure why you would 'never' restrict a drain. Every bend restricts the drain

    Can anyone ID this algae for me?

    Breeders have found they can. Females sometimes start off w/ some gray features that become more pronounced. Males usually bright yellow. Check out WWM or advancedaquarist for more details.

    Is this product any good?!?

    Looks like a 404 to me. Yours must be different though, I'm sure.. Good luck Just for kicks I'll tell you that it is under pressure. The pressure of all that water volume above those pipes. It may work but it wasn't designed for it. Anyway, enjoy
