I couldn't find the schedule 80 PVC at Home Depot or Lowe's. All they had was schedule 40 and the inner diameter is a little too big. I threw an extra o-ring on the maxijet and the sc 40 stuff worked though.]]> Thu, 23 Nov 2006 16:53:14 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15165&PID=135780&title=maxi-jet-modification#135780 <![CDATA[Maxi Jet Modification : You can get carbon rods and props...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15165&PID=135660&title=maxi-jet-modification#135660 Author: Bob Kripfgans

No, no one sells it. You have 2 choices at this point, 1. make your own, 2. buy the parts to make it from mjmods.com

Yes the kits are really that easy... and the parts are all there.  The vortex from the surface that Bob mentions is even covered.  A piece of acrylic that slides into the pump body where the pump mount would slide in prevents that.  The kit is very good.  All the parts fit perfect, well balanced, no noise..  It really was the best money I ever spent..

I was able to mod out Rio's Maxi's just about any power head. I the results were amazing! I searched a few hobby shops and picked up the props and carbon rods real cheap. The PVC coupler from HD. I highly recommend it. I went from dead spots using 4 power heads down to 2. They are so strong that they tend to pull a vortex from the surface water. I had to modify the PVC openings to prevent the suction. Reef Central has a long tread on the build.

Dave, when you buy the kit from MJMods, is it really that easy?  If so, I think I'm gonna purchase some MJ's and some Modkits soon.]]> Fri, 17 Nov 2006 17:57:06 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15165&PID=135157&title=maxi-jet-modification#135157 <![CDATA[Maxi Jet Modification : Well yes Adam, but I just have...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15165&PID=135010&title=maxi-jet-modification#135010 Author: DaveB
