Message: [QUOTE="bubberge, post: 532108, member: 22018"] Oh I also made my own snorkel based on some comment GBBUDD made in CW's build thread (I can't find it at the moment). This is already installed but I have some pictures so I figured I'd share. It's 12" culvert chopped up and hacked into place. I cut holes in the top to mimic the way the Aquascape centipede works, which you can see in the test fit pic. I covered the bottom of the snorkel and the end of the centipede with EPDM liner zip-tied into place (not pictured). I also added a 2" PVC pipe opposite the snorkel with a 90º and about 6" worth of run into the centipede portion. That is also zip-tied in place. I had to find a way to make the snorkel connect with the centipede, so to do that I notched out the end of the centipede and cut an oval out of the bottom of the snorkel. A pretty serious amount of leftover material was obstructing the snorkel once I fitted them together, so I cut that off to provide better access for my sump pump (red lines in picture). The centipede does still stick into the snorkel a little bit -- about a 1" lip is still present in there. But the inner diameter of this pipe is 12", so the pump I use for clean-out fits fine with plenty of room to spare. All of this is sitting on a layer of underlayment just to keep the liner safe. On top of that I have 8 small aquablocks, and the rest of the layers previously discussed. I got a little carried away with making progress and forgot to take pictures of that part. [/QUOTE]
