Thread: Now i've done it

Are you going with all new hoses as well, did you look at their Livewell builder tool they have on that site? The new hoses and the way they connect are great because they allow you to disconnect at anytime and clean them out well.

Yeah--going with new hoses but not the quick lock--I used the builder to pick the parts--I did it exactly with what they called out in the builder (was almost 300 bucks) then I went back and pick and choose exactly what I needed (valve, mounting plate, and hoses, and screens)--with freight was 135. I don't have to change my nozzles or drains, pumps are good, cables are good--I would have liked to rip all out and change everything but that would be a bit much. It should work for me pretty good.

Mine are EXACTLY like that.....,empty. Bwahahahahaha

Good luck. I agree. The hoses are a bit much. You can get fine reinforced hose from true value on the cheap.

Yea they are a tad high, but you can also do part at a time which is the nice thing about it. Those hoses connect and disconnect fast and easy, I like to take them off and run high pressure water through them once a year to remove old fish slim and scales, and such.

You can reuse the pumps you currently have I believe, just make sure on the diameter of the hose needed. The hoses last forever really.

Yeah--i spent about 20bucks form Flow Rite (the more you spend the less the freight) only reason I bought it from them.

Yeah--I plan on doing that at a later date (just change fittings) all is 3/4 inch so good to go (the overflow is 1 and 1/8 but wont change it)
