Default Painted and varnished

3 coats of marine grade black paint and 2 coats of sealer.



Set stand in place and pull out the level and ............ NO WAY



Set tank in place, nice reflection in tank me and my Sponge Bob Tshirt.



After careful consideration of all advice on how to mod my overflow, I came up with this solution. Since I had a 1" and a 1/2" bulkhead in overflow I found it insufficient to drain efficiently. I upsized the 1" to 1 1/2" Pipe above the bulkhead . I bored out the 1/2" to 3/4" and made that the emergency drain and I added a second 1/2" emergency out the back.



Side veiw



Prepping emergency line and Return line for paint. Like the look of black pipes on black background.





This is the return that I came up with, is it to much ?? want lots of flow .





Cover for overflow



Painted Lines



Ready to be glued in place and a little touch up paint. Good to go.
