My tank is 120x38x28. Trust me you will love your new tank. Looking forward to seeing yours come together.

This will be a really nice large system! . I will keep my eye out for update photos.

My tank is a smaller version of yours and this is what I have for flow.

Stars are holes drilled in the eurobrace for returns. Circles are MP40's.



Here is a rough idea of how my water flows.

Also, when concept builds your tank request ZERO bubbles in the silicone on the visible edge between the two pieces of starfire glass. The other edges don't matter as much as I assume they will be concealed.

That's something you shouldn't have to request.

I emailed them with this Request.
this is the reply i got:




Not sure where that idea came from but it is almost impossible due to the way we build for strength

We use spacer to form a 1/16 gap between the glass contract to give the silicone the strongest bond, but due to this when the silicone cures it traps the moisture in the seams and that can cause bubbles to form


The only way to not have bubble is to remove more silicone between the seams so less moisture is release but you get a weaker seam

I agree Wardog! Mtlreeffreak, that was an option (that I didn't know about until after) when I bought my tank. I could be wrong, but I swear someone local to me ordered their tank specifically with no bubbles and paid extra.
