StirCrazy is on a distinguished road
Default Stand is finaly done

well all the over flows I have "seen in action"
have had surface skimmer teeth and also bottom ones so that is why I have shyed away from them. (even my new surface skimmer atachement I bought for my fresh tank has both top and bottom slots. it is doing a wonderfull job mind you [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] )

I did think about getting the bottom drilled I just didn't like the idea.. and the way I plan on putting my rock I think will work out much better this way for some reason [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

the whole overflow was a big deterent also for this kinda aplcation. when you only have the front as a main view you can put overflows int he back corners and they don't interfeer with the view, but when you have 3 "main view" sides as I am using it as a room partition, I didn't want to be looking at the inside of a overflow on the long glass sides.

I did think about getting the bottom drilled I just didn't like the idea.. and the way I plan on putting my rock I think will work out much better this way for some reason [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

oh one thing that might actualy make sence is that because of the hight of tanks I am using for sumps by the time I plummed the threaded union and ball valve I would pretty hard pressed to fit everything.
