Try to use flexible hose to connect (6-8inches), it'll allow for some movements.

flexible hose (6-8inches) with threading are quite hard as i only have 15 to 18 cm of space to make a turn.

therefore it is out

more details as in ?

reason that i stick to egg crate is that when i happen to change my mind not to have the back ground i can take out any time.

further more with the egg crate act as a cushion between the rock and the tank wall

maybe this brighten pic can help u see better
