Hopefully you didn't glue the whole thing together because it will need to be cleaned out periodically. I only glued the fittings that come over the rim of my tank; the spray bar itself is just slipped together to allow access for cleaning with a tubular brush.

Nice job though I would not have put the tee in.
 
Oh man, you are AWESOME! I was just thinking of how I was going to make a spraybar for my C-360! So the pipe itself is 3/4 inch, what about the hose connector?
It looks like you siliconed the hose connector to the piping?
