    4 foot level for height comparison

    i didnt really plan ahead and left very little room underneath the tank so im stuck using a 10 gal for my sump :). I know not the brightest move ever made but it will work for my 29.

  2. Im in the process of making my overflows, Im a very DIY person and im not at all scared of drilling glass, i also have several old 10 gallons to practice on. I dont have a return yet, im trying to figure all this out before i go and buy any pumps or bulkheads. I just need help figuring how many GPH to put through my sump and the size holes i need to drill, bulkhead types and size and what kind of return pump.

  3. so im getting ready to break my tank down and get it all ready to drill and plumb, the question is, how do I determine the proper size for my holes?

    Its a standard 29 tall. im planning on doing two holes for two small corner overflows running to about 15 gallons of sump\refugium.

    also, its about 4 feet from where im planning the holes on the display to the sump\fuge.

  4. its gonna sit the tank like it is in the pictures, and the peninsula will be what i do with the rock work, In my mind my rock is in an "L"shape against my overflow wall, which will be a rock\foam wall and jut out into the tank.
