    Could that foam be a potential fire hazard if it were used with an external pump? In the planning stages for my tank...I like the idea.

    Not sure, I wouldnt think so. I bought it at home depot in the insullation section. Its your normal everyday styrofoam sheets used for packaging or whatever. Comes in a pack of 5 sheets for $12.00. I didnt want to buy the giant pink sheet that most people usually buy.

    Ish, if you mount your external to a small piece of plywood and then place it on the foam you should be fine.

    I just noticed the 45 degree bends. Not too shabby!

    Thanks! I was going to orginally use 90's but decided to go with the 45 for less restriction; not to mention they were sold out.
