you can go two ways... but I would not bend the bulkhead on the container....

1st, use a few 45s to make it meet up with the other PVC run.
2nd, insert a section of PVC and using a heat gun to soften and make it pliable, bend the PVC to line up with the tee.

Awesome. Will try that tonight. Thanks'

For the Top vertical tank that gravity feeds into Tank "A". I was going to add a regular PVC Valve but it sticks out way too much and would need to curve under the stand. Is there another fitting I can add to make it more low profile? like a plastic faucet with an adapter to connect flex tubing?

 

[ReefCartel]

Maybe something Similar to these fittings but more appropriate for storing RODI . Just dont know the name of it or what to order. Whats your suggestion?

 

[143MPCo]

Perfect Idea to heat bend the pipe

adjusted bent pipe to straighten it out

 

[ReefCartel]

Might need to re-position the pump side ways. Not sure how much of an affect it would have on the flow but this is the only way the barbs will line up.

Yeah that's fine it shouldn't cause any problems with the flow.
