General Zod Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) After installing my live bait tank a while ago I thought I'd add a pick up for it as well, that way the squid don't die so quickly and get a fresh dose of water when I'm going to another location. I was luckily enough to find this pick up from my local boat shop after waiting for about 2 months for sock from another place. But I see now that warehouse has them back in stock because I've seen them popping up on eBay from other shops. Anyway here's my result. Parts then Cut hole to feed hose through Use hot water to soften up the rubber hose's then join them via the 13mm to 19mm hose adaptor. Install the inlets Now its time to fit the adjustable pick up. I used Tef-Gel on the screws, although water should not even get close to the holes because I've used Sikaflex 291 (marine) around the whole fitting. Finished product, adjustable and outa the way when not in use. Edited January 23, 2016 by General Zod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Zod Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) I've seen these somewhere, but can't remember where. Not a bad idea. Either flee bay or Led Adv*ntage has them. I was lucky my local had one at the time nobody else had them in stock. Edited February 3, 2016 by General Zod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squidboy Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 A Quintrex dealer will have the part in stock for sure (my boat is a Quintrex). I won't name which one due to site rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xsite Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Hi guys, I have an unorthodox way for bait pump by mount this type of pump outside of boat, Cheap, convenient and a shit load of water will go in to tank when boat is planning. I also install a timer so pump will run for 45 second every five minutes or bypass timer if required, now we don't have to worry about keeping bait alive PM me if you want photo Xsite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
