Hi,
I needed a way to get more movement, looking at my tank, a 55 gal.
I took some clear flexible plastic tubing I got at home depot, 5/8" diameter, and cut it the length of the tank. Folded over the end and tied it with a plastic ziptie. Cut some holes (tiny) along the length with the tips of my strong scissors. Attached it to a maxi-jet 300 with another ziptie. Suspended it from the center brace with a bigger ziptie, and tucked the end behind some other equipment at the surface. Turned on the pump. Voila. Lots of water movement at the surface and down the back.
I only cut the holes so the water would spray in 2 directions, out and down. That way the water does not spray out of the tank.
So, what do ya think?
