I am going to set up a brand new Reefer 250 system. I would like to set up the plumbing by adding some on and off valves so that in the future if I NEED to add reactors, I can just "plug" them in and remove them as I wish without re-plumbing the whole system again.

Does anyone out here have these kind of set up on their Reefer 250? Can you please share your plumbing pictures? Also, where do you get your color PVC pipes. I am looking to set up mine super neat and no clutters. I possibly thinking about using an IKEA furniture and mod it to fit all controller and power bar so that they are out of the tank cabinet.

Thank you
 
I found this plumbing design on YouTube. What do you guys think?

 
Yup, I am basing alot of my plumbing decisions off the information that Sithrico shared. His build was the older style sump though.

I am worried of using furniture grade coloured PVC. Maybe I should go with the industrial one and then wrap them with the colour that I want. If it leaks or burst for whatever reason, the insurance company will look for faults to not pay.
 
What kind of insurance are you planning on? I didn't think homeowner's insurance covers things like pet damage to your own property.

I have to call them and inquire. It is important to have it though.
Are you planning to install Neptune leak detection module as well?
