Also Jojo. I got that pump in the day after we did the PVC. I hooked up both to see what it could do and the Won Brothers one was way more powerful. Runs 30 lines NO problem. AND MUCH MUCH quieter | |

| Looks great! So, that's a Won Bros. pump? I am going to be needing one ASAP, for a 400G with 10 - 20G tanks connected. Also, do you have a economical way of getting your air sponge filters (whole setup...)??
I only have 6 connected now, but as soon as I find some spare time I will be setting up the other 4... | |

| nice should save some major bucks on electricity. How often you do water changes, since sponge filters doesn't really help with mechanical filtration? | |

| I do 50% water change ever week. I rinse the spoonge like once every other month and replace them every 6 months. Most of the spoonge filters that I have are rated for 40 gallons.....so most of the tanks are over done. Anything thats 55G and bigger gets 2 spoonge filters. | |
