I really like the look of this tank with the silver trim, very modern looking.

Going with Herbie standpipes? What did you have in mind for wave making equipment?

I'll be following along with your progress

Yes, the look is what sold me on it and very well built. Of course it came with a whole pile of other Fluval stuff I have to sell but that fine.

Not sure about the drains yet. The bulkheads were already installed and have pretty neat inserts to go through them. Of course not specifically designed to handle what we do. So I so far added the 1in. slip fitting you see on top.

If I go herbie it will limit me to the single drain which is not much larger than 3/4in. If I could get around 300 to 350gph through it from the other room then that would work. Otherwise I was going with two Duraso,s. Thats would give me at least 1.5in capacity. Was reading Rich,s site though and not sure how to Duraso type stacks would work in the same overflow compartment.

Hey are you going to put a strainer of some sort on your drains? If so where did you get them?
