Where do you hang or run these along your aquarium? I am used to hanging the gang valve on the back of the glass.

That's difficult, it's just the valve. We bought a cheap plastic one, then hose suction cups, they work alright

I have my pump on a shelf/cabinet under, I just have mine laying there... dont think it has any hanging mechanism

The filter mounts on the outside, only the intake tube and the output waterfall are in the tank. I use it for fish so I can't address it for frogs however I use Youtube quite a bit and hopefully this video might be of assistance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWiVQjZQNbA

No I did not and did two and hard plumb them in. Had to place stud under RO for fixture to screw to. They both work fine if you don't have super high water pressure. Other wise water goes over sides of glass. I placed 1/4 turn shut offs in wall to adjust pressure to make them work right. Care full easy to install valve body backwards test make sure lever going left is hot. I install both backwards not knowing. Hope that helps.

No...it should be good. It is sturdy and sticks to the glass with suction cups. You can place it on the bottom or side of the aquarium. If you have plants or decorations, you can hide it behind them.

You may want to consider using an aquarium air check valve (-- search on "aquarium check valve" for examples). This will allow air to be pumped into the tank, yet prevent water from flowing back to the air pump in the event of a power failure or whatever. The pump could then be hidden anywhere outside of the tank.

I doubt it. I'm using the hanging brackets now and am having some issue with flow rate. I'm actually going to break down this weekend to investigate. It's meant to sit on shelf with tank or hang on.

They work great for holding old glass tube TV's on stands to the wall. It attaches to the item you want to attach to the wall with think adhesive on nylon straps. I dont think they could be depended on to hold onto a smooth glass aquarium weighing a hundred pounds with water. I would not do it. The other end attaches with wood screws in studs. Though it would be better than nothing, I would not trust it.

I watched my female betta jump up the waterfall part, swim around in the filter, then surf back out. (It turned out she was being bullied by other fish in the tank.) Maybe put a screen under/in front of the outflow? Or put a piece of sponge or nylon over the intake?

U attach the holder to the rear of the tank or terrarium. I have 2 of them for my beardie, one for the basking light, another for the UVB light. It works great. It sticks to the back of the tank, the height is adjustable. That way, the lamps don't rest on the top of the screen.

That is how I use them. I have them on the ground on insulating panels. It will require a trip or two to the local hardware or pool store for at least clamps as mine came with only two.

They just want you hooking it up to the backup one is all, the pipe that goes to a 45 to the main discharge. I did exactly what you're asking, put check valves right after it just like how you hookup a Watchdog battery system. If that's what you have right Now like I had. I took that 600 piece garbage out. This water backup one works awesome! Worth every penny, and it's 1/5 thr Price of the Best Watchdog Battery System. Another suggestion is I used those rubber inch & half elbows with hose clamps on each instead of using PVC elbows. Worked great for me and it's not nearly as Rigid. Google this also & click images, youtube video is also good Have a Great Christmas

I mounted the valve that was supplied with the pump. you must install this type of valve. Its made over cheap plastic/compost type material. I mounted mine under the farthest from the tank bathroom sink in the cabinet. I still don't understand how the valve works but, but it does

I mounted them to a pvc pipe that I painted black. Then I screwed it to the celling. However I took it down shortly there after. I wouldn't purchase this product again. It is very bright.

I rigged my own. Each cage is different. I had to rig it differently for my glass aquarium cage as opposed to my wired cage.

I bet you can use the Command heavy duty velcro strips. One side of the strip would stick on the back of the feeder and the other side on the aquarium. Just tear the feeder from the aquarium to remove for cleaning and attach it back when you're done. You can attach several strips to make it super secure. I use these all over the house.

In addition to what Jason said, filters bubble and fish jump, even the little ones. So to keep from "decorating" the outside of your tank with watermarks and dead fish, put a lid on it:)
