Hi,
Im about to set up my first reef tank and need some advice on a couple of issues, first which kind of pipe to use for the sump feed and return.Can I use the standard pvc pipe with glued joints you get from a hardware store for this application or do I need to buy some special stuff?
Im also planning to make some shelves in the tank out of plastic egg crate from some light fittings.Will any old kind of plastic do as long as its clean?
Just trying to avoid any mistakes.
Thanks,
Martin.

Standard PVC works fine. Sometime you might want to use some flexible vinyl tubing to connect to pumps since there is some vibration involved.

Egg crates is definately fine for your application as is most plastics.
