Alita AL40

[T. Payne]

I recently picked up a brand new in box Alita AL40 linear air piston pump off of Craigslist for $100, which i thought was a pretty good deal.  If I run an air loop system with 1" pvc, does anyone have an estimate of how many drop lines for aquariums I can run?

I have that same pump and I have around 40 airline drops. Some aren't used all the time, I put in a few extra to use for hatching brine shrimp, running breeder boxes etc.

If l could get 40 out of it that would be great. Did you run 1" for your loop?

No, my loop is made from 3/4". If i was going to do again, I would use 1" just for because I think it would be a little easier drilling and screwing the valves in.

Ok, thank you.
