I am currently in the process of getting the last bit of supplies for my 180 Gallon Peninsula DYI build, but would love to see how others have plumbed theirs (sump and overflow). I will be drilling the tank myself as it is currently a freshwater cichlid tank, but do to the virus I have been unable to take my African cichlids in to trade for credit to my local Big Als store.

A 180ish penninsula has been my dream tank and I will absolutely get one in the next home that we buy. Do you have a build thread on this?

You can see my build thread on a local forum I am on.

Its a great size. I recently came across some really cool rock structure and wish I had bought those but didnt find them until about 2 months ago. I have too many fish and corals to start again but check out the rockscapes from Westmaricultre on Instagram. Your either gonna love it or hate it.
