OMG! You're SO much now upbeat now. Haha! I like how your channel has improved. I hope to see my videos improve like yours have!
Sweet just saved $30
Nice reference video.
too bad you didnt show the result..
I enjoy the crickets and noise in the video, so comfy
been watching you for a while, so glad when i was looking up spray bars for my fluval U2 (means a DIY job) i come across this Vid as first in the search.
Thanks Joey, very simple but sometimes you just need to see it being done before yiu're willing to try it yourself. : )
Should be noted that you are using CPVC, not standard PVC. These CPV fittings and diameters are not the same size as standard PVC.
Bossa Nova Jahovah! Lovin the DIY spray bar! Lol.
revamp this video!
I've built many of these over the years as a live well on my boats. I have several suggestions. First don't put a ninety fitting on one end. Instead use a tee with a threaded center outlet. You can screw a hose barb fitting into that for the tubing to fit on. Next extend the tee out a couple of inches with pipe and then add a cap on that end. Now you can fit the bar tightly without the hose being pressed up against the end of the tank. Instead of holes I use a hack saw to cut slits in the spray bar. Start with about a quarter of the slits you think you'll need. Place the bar in position and turn on the pump. You'll see the flow and should be able to decide if you have enough flow to be able to cut additional slits and the water still spray out of the bar. I use slits as they seem to not stop up as quickly as small holes. You want enough slits to allow flow without backpressure on your pump but enough resistance that the water still sprays out under pressure.
what is the purpose of a spray bar
can any one answer just wondering what they are for
what is a good paint to use for the spray bar?
What paint can I use to paint this black?
Haha div that's a metal drill bit
I created one the other day with same method when mine bar went missing . Great ideas always
Great video. I find that most bars are too skinny and never long enough !!
I have a question for anyone. I am moving my red ear slider in a 55 gallon tank. And wanted to know if I can use patio blocks to have my turtle get uo to climb on his dock to bask. I saw on a video that you should have your rocks checked to see me if they have a chemical on them and it could kill a turtle or fish.
Does anyone know how to clean these things? Meaning how to safely remove the manufacturer's label and any dirt?
Is there any add benefit to the tank by adding spray bar?
