Fluval & SCWD

[willis stanley]

Hi,

I've been able to find just enough posts to know that this has been
done, but not enough in the way of description: I want to route the
return of a Fluval 304 through a SCWD. The problem is connecting the
Fluval to the SCWD and making that connection sufficiently secure so
that the backpressure created by the SCWD doesn't start a leak (SCWD is
plumbed outside and below tank). any help?

Thanks.

I had to plumb the output of my Fluval 404 to a UV sterilizer. I needed a
few of the rubber hose fittings and some time and patience. I had two
leaking accidents and the wife was not a happy camper! 8=) After all was
said and done a few small dripping leaks appeared. A little plumbers goop
and teflon tape and it finally all came together. The key was the hose
fittings.
