Primer whatever surfaces are being glued together. If a piece of PVC is going inside another piece or fitting, then you need to primer the inside of that piece.

Put pencil marks at all the joints and mark numbers if you have to.
A digital camera helps also.lol |

Here's another tip, DOnt do it in the house unless you have to, if you have to in the house make sure you open all windows, especially if you have a wife like me, lol

Shooter7 I agree plumbing was a bit of a challenge but I sure learned alot by plumbing a tank people are still amazed when I show them under my tank. Actually I am still amazed when I look under my tank. One thing to remember is to make sure that you put union and ball valves were needed union most importantly. Also what I did is i put everything together the way that I wanted and then I took a marker and marked how far pieces were suppose to be slid into the other piece of pvc. This is helpful because you dont want to glue 5 pieces together and then end up short on one end or whatever.
