    This is my first build from scratch. Will need help.

    It has polypropylene bottom, dark back glass back, center overflow, 2 holes for 1 inch bulkhead, and 1 hole for 3/4 bulkhead, euro braced 36x24x25"h.

    Ordered bulkheads, lock line and other plumbing items from Bulk Reef Supply.

    Planning on trying Herbie drain system.

    Just starting to build the stand.

  3. I just got a new AGE 26 x 24 x24" aquarium that has an overflow in the middle with 3 holes. I measured the holes as 2 @ 1.75" and 1 @ 1.375", as best I can measure. I am not sure the best way to plumb these and would like help. It seems that I should use 1 inch bulkheads for 2 drains and a 3/4 bulkhead for the return. The overflow looks like it has 2 cutouts that would be used to have the return split into 2 outlets.

    Questions:

    1. Is it best to use bulkheads with threads or no threads?

    2. How do I plumb the drains so they will be the quietest?

    3. How do I plumb the returns?

    4. How much flow could I do through the drains?
    5. Have I asked all that I would need to know? :)

    Thanks!
