I hate to see pips sticking all into a tank (: when you get to this level that is.. Like with our clients when we set up a $ 35,000.00 and Plus turn key job people don't want to see pipes (: After 200 gallons the game changes (:
I was planning on the spray bar on both bottom sides to be under the substrate and come up with Loc-Line fittings. The top two spray bars will be above the tank and I will drop down in the water with black Loc-Line Loc-Line and have a 3" spout on the end. That way you wont see any of the spray bars except for just the spout and it will be black. I have the SCH80 for the top spray bar and SCH40 for the bottom so it will match the sand if it happens to show a little with someone digging around.

NO! In fact, I recently broke down my 2.5 nano tank so the only box of water that we've got now is the 180. This is the least amount of tanks I've ever had and me likey!!

Ha! I'm trying to downsize the number of living things I'm responsible for too...buying live food for the herps every week is getting old...
