Spialz Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Are you planning to use both levels of that wire rack for 10 gallon tanks? If so, you'll have to let me know how it goes. I've got a larger rack like that holding an assortment of smaller tanks And I always wondered if the smaller rack would hold up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High5's Posted May 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 I'd like to put a 10 on the top shelf but I don't know if I trust it. It says 250 pounds per shelf and a full 10 gallon is around 100 pounds so it should hold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spialz Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 That's how I've felt. Based on the shelf specs, it should work...but I don't know if I want to risk it either. Haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High5's Posted May 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 I got my pump today when I opened the box it smelled really bad like moth balls. The tube that connects from the pump to the manifold smells like it was made of moth balls so I am going to replace it before I hook it up. Seems like a decent pump for 25$ 571gph the only thing negative so far is the stinky tube.

mayphly Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 These are great little pumps. I'm using the Elemental 272 1157gph. It also came with a 6 way manifold. I replaced the 6 way with a stainless steel 12 way. My pump pushes 12 tanks with plenty room for more. I'm hoping it will push 12 more tanks.[emoji120] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk High5's 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elo500 Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 How is the noise level on those pumps? Where did you buy at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High5's Posted May 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 How is the noise level on those pumps? Where did you buy at? They make a bit more noise than a basic air pump, hanging them quiets them down even more. I got it from Ebay. These are great little pumps. I'm using the Elemental 272 1157gph. It also came with a 6 way manifold. I replaced the 6 way with a stainless steel 12 way. My pump pushes 12 tanks with plenty room for more.

You should be able to run 24 outlets with that pump. mayphly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High5's Posted June 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Set up a 10 gallon a few weeks ago for some Royal blue tigers. Still need to do a few thing in the space but I have made some progress. Dendrobatez 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High5's Posted July 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 I noticed a few molts in my TB tank yesterday and was surprised to see a female fluffing some muffins today. sewoeno and Faralon 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High5's Posted August 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 Got my Royal blue tigers today from Rob @ flipaquatics. Couldn't really get good pics my glass is dirty and they wouldn't sit still. Linda and Amyers22 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
