    Anyone using this method to support their live rock? If so how do you like it? Always looking for ways to improve flow and eliminate dead spots.

    I use it, And have my return pump going through it. I love it. I have the side open so I can look all the way down it. My tank is 6 foot and the rack is 4 foot. It sits in the middle of the tank.

    Any pics? Also, what size pvc do you use then? I'm building a 20 gallon tank for my brother and I'm thinking about this or using fishing line/epoxy.

    +1 on the pics.  I want some support for the rock I'm cooking for my 75 gal and would like to see how it's been done.

    Look in the photo area for thread Fun day for pics of the rack. I used 3/4 and 1/2 in. If you get to the Marion area and I'm around, and you let me know when you will be here, you are more then welcome to see my tank.
