thanks for the replies MadDogMe and Volenti. i'll go get my air hose later and some metal clamps... and go check out some brass fittings..
the pump comes with a plastic fitting.. or extender of some sort.. i believe thats the output.. which is plastic.. i think it'll be better if i used brass fittings?
and to tighten hoses on the fittings.. i was thinking about metal clamps + zip ties.. anything else i missing?
ah and something just came across my mine.. bacteria growth in the system.. i believe once water is exposed to air it has a chance of bacteria growth? and tap water definately has bacteria.. i'm going to use distilled water from the bottle..but i believe handling it here and there will probably contaminate it.. so how do i go about and make sure no bacteria growth? or those funny sh!t growing in my system? additive? the aquarium/fish shop sells those water treatment stuff..but i dont know which is suitable..any idea? a certain chemical or ingredient i should look for?
and does water wetter really improves performance? or its just bullcrap?
