where did you buy the black "strainers" the foams sit on and the same for the black pipes your power heads are connected to? THaNKS

So how does that work? What works as biological filtration? Just the foam?

*edit* Never mind. I guess I should have finished reading it.

Looks good.

Have not seen that kind of setup before.

The 'strainers' are from old intake pipes I got from the LFS. The 'black' pipes are just painted PVC.

Here is a short video showing the current in the 75 with just the two Maxi Jet 1200s.

You can see the glass thermometer (upper left) going to the right and circling the tank.
