Those holes go through the back and don't come out the front?

Asking for friend.

4 drilled holes on right door, the returns are going through front right 90 inside cabinet, then take a left 90 out of cabinet Into sump.


this was the smallest utility sink with enough clearance to allow pipe work at 20” height and not get in way of sink or sink plumbing.

stupid question but why wouldnt you move the sump where the sink is and the sink where the sump is and just run two 1/2" copper lines on the drywall and paint them to match?

Unfortunately that would block access to display door opening.

the sump is 60” long the short side of this closet is only 58” wide so I wouldn’t be able to rotate it and have it against fish wall.

The two convict tangs were at each others throats, so i picked up the larger powder brown to ease some aggression between them. It worked, the powder brown is really happy and not agressive towards any other tangs or tank mates. Im thinking the large swim area helped alot with his anger issues at the lfs.

Was the "cat ledge" a design choice or just a happy coincidence? :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:
lol…cat ledge was not in the plan, now I wish I requested a 12” ledge for the cats.


I've been looking for something they can sleep an lay on while watching the fish, currently I‘m using counter stools. I dont like look of stools down there, but at least they don‘t have to jump on small ledge.
