Some plumbing pictures of the weekend I will be putting unions on the downpipes for easy removal and possible cleaning in the future. I will be finnishing the rest of the plumbing this week adding eductors to the return lines and painting the background ( Black ) adding a light rack. The official move of the tank will take place 2 weekends from now. I will be setting up a go pro to capture this enormous move project. Stay Tuned

Looks great but is your overflow completely braced over? It looks like you cannot access it at all?

Agreed, I would throw up some egg crate to make sure no fish can get over. Talking from experience its more than an inconvenience trying to catch a fish in a tight internal overflow.

Yeah for sure it will be running right to the top of the glass so nothing can get in.
