Well.... my sumpless build is coming to a screeching halt!! After a discussion this weekend with a friend who is a running a 90G setup, and basically getting ripped a new one about not running a sump, my plans have changed. (sucks to be a newbie... even when you do as much researching/reading as you can)
So....... I had pondered the idea of a Herbie style overflow system after some discussion with the guys at Red Coral.. and had decided on going that route, but I didn't like the idea of the external overflow.. and I got directed towards this style instead, and its the way I am gonna go.

I prefer the internal overflow to save external room around the tank, should allow for alot more surfacing skimming (24" across 4" at either end) compared to the screened bulkheads required for the herbie style.
Picked up the acrylic tonight, and got my pieces cut to size. Cutting acrylic is something I don't want to do again!!
4 Panels
And the mess that is creates...
Tomorrow..... Silicone!
