Sorry guys the PC is acting a little squirly, can one of the mods clean that up?

[myjohnson]

lol, you posted that enough times Gene? )

So you just shove the hose into the coupling and glue the crud out of it? In other words, it is a straight coupling on both ends?

Yes, lots of force and a lot of glue. It is an amazingly simple design

Awesome. Thanks so much for posting this. I just saw cichlid1409's assembly and building one is on my short list of plans. Like maybe tomorrow! How is the flow rate using 1.5" hose? Also, does Lowe's have the carbon? I'm tired of running 75' of hose from my in-house filters.

i've got enough to spare mike....

I am sorry but I do not know where the carbon came from. John was kind enough to give it to me from his personal stock. Watch this thread I am sure John will be along to answer any and all questions I can't
