Re: [GSAS-Member] River Manifold System

Shango,

I had two of these for a little while and just took the last one down.  I
had two filters, two power heads, and a single 3/4 pipe down the back to
connect.  The pumps would "fight" for flow when the sponges start to fill
and the power heads had a tendency not to restart.  The idle power head
becomes the past of least resistance and water + filth flows backwards etc.
I would have a dedicated sponge for every power head (or multiple sponges
per power head).

A fun project! 


This set-up is so cool.  Not today, but after I move I am definitely going
to set one of these up.

Thanks Cory!
