Do you get any sag on the RMS track? Which one did you use the 70in version?

Do you get any sag on the RMS track? Which one did you use the 70in version?

Yes unfortunately I get about a half inch sag on the 70.5 inch RMS track. I have 2 XR30 G3’s on the outside and 2 G4’s on the inside. The sag bothered me a bit initially, but I have gotten used to it. Not sure anything can be done about it. Maybe someday I’ll look into hanging my lights.

Following along. Love the build! I too went with the RSR 750 v3!

It looks like you are correct on all accounts. I'm not using the delivered plumbing though. I plan to use 1" plumbing throughout, and have constructed 4 of the below, using R42221 Sump Pump Connectors and a 3/4" MPT to 1" slip adapters. Each return will go to a separate Vectra M2 using the adapters shown. One of the pumps will also feed a manifold in addition to the tank outlet. I will work on the plumbing after completing my Apex controller box this weekend now that I'm back from the holidays.

I am also converting my 750xxl V3 from metric to standard 1". I was told by Red Sea that the pipe connections coming from tank are 25mm O.D. does this setup work for this? Thanks

Just checking out this build! Great job! I'm especially impressed with that controller board!

No, they are looking at using the part to modify their systems. 42222 doesn’t unscrew. 42221 does unscrew.Also they are asking about the New 750. It’s got all new plumbing.

Hi, I am trying to convert my Red Sea 170 pipes to all hard plumbing and I tired to unscrew the part that came with my tank but it wouldn't budge. So your saying that part # 42221, that hose barb portion DOES unscrew from the rest, in order to slip a standard pvc pipe into it?

I am piecing togething all the parts and I don't want to spend money on someothing that won't work. does that piece still unscrew or did they change it? thank you!

I am going to buy this from amazon:

along with these: https://www.pvcfittingsonline.com/3-4-x-1-sch-80-pvc-reducing-male-adapter-mpt-x-socket-836-102.html

so that I can then hard plumb my return manifold. I really appreciate the help in advance.

Hi Leon, yes in fact follow @AZMSGT url https://www.reef2reef.com/ams/how-t...pipe-red-sea-plumbing-used-as-an-example.790/
This is one of the best recaps. I agree with the fitting selection which gives you extra ID to pass flow.

What parts are needed to connect the apex fmm-100 1" flow sensor to red sea part r42221?
