building my cube 30x30x30

Why not have an external overflow? I'm just asking......

If I were to custom design a tank - I would seriously consider this - gives more room in the tank.

Yeah I thought about it, but I am thinking the weight of the overflow on the back? Does it need any extra bracing? If anyone has any pics of an external overflow, please post them.

Thanks,

i've got an external overflow box, it has no extra bracing.

I think the external would be neat Mike and easy to do as the tanks being built. My problem with it is the amount of rear space needed but would it be much more than,s required for the pipes you have drawn? If I was doing that I would install a single 2in. overflow, similar to the one I have in my 45 cube.

yeah DOug a single 2" would be alot easier I think. time to revamp the tank again

Are you actually going to build this tank yourself?

If so....... a photo pictorial would be cool.

I've always wanted to build a tank
