Looks good Josh ... keep the covering on the tube when cutting so it doesnt get scratched.

Is it going to be a beckett?

Here is a deal Alex found at HD for 4 bucks. The beckett fits perfect and its a union making cleaning a breeze!!

Looking good Josh, but I think you need to go bigger! :-) LOL, anytime you add the "For aquarium use" label on something it triples in value. Think I'm going to start selling rolls of toilet paper as "Specially designed aquarium glass cleaning tissue" on Ebay for about $20 a roll. Should be able to pay off my house in no time! LMAO
