Equipment Review and Discussion :: How can I design this?

[Rubicon]

Ok instead of getting a power head I'm going to go a different route. I'd like to get a seperate pump, tubing, UV sterilizer, and a pre-filter sponge setup. The one thing I'd like to do is find a way to inject air into the outflow. I've seen this done with submersible power heads before. How would I do it on here? Here's what I wanna use:







The hole idea behind the setup is I will have both the XP3 out flow and the out flow for this on the right side of the tank. Then both pickups on the left side. This should give me a really good turnover then without creating a large current.

Also does anyone know of a generic canister filter accessory kit? I.E....


Something like that just cheaper???

yes... 1/2" PVC from the hardware store. Paint it with krylon fusion and let it cure. aquarium safe and pennies per fitting.

As for injecting air... just get a NPT tap for an 1/8" nipple fitting. Drill the pilot hole, tap it, screw in the nipple (use some teflon tape) and attach your air tubing to it.
