Hey Reefers!,
I have a few questions for big DIY guys.. I recently bought a 75 gallon Aqueon tank (petco sale) and I would love to drill it. I have drilled three tanks previously with pretty good success. Now the questions I have are....and maybe some of y'all can help me out.. Stand, Overflow and Sump... Lets first start with the stand, should I cut the the wood 2x4 or 2x6...? also about how high should go? As per the overflow I'm thinking adding a eshopps type S over flow in the center of the tank... (as I would like to add two maxspect gyre's 330 on each side the tank... And adding two return lines to the tank with two (RFG's).. As you guys can tell I want some serious movement...! lol. Last but not least is I would like to know about your opinions about the sump... I do have a 10 gallon tank just laying around and I would love to make it the sump for the tank.. Would guys recommend it? As I'm doing the measurements the pump would fit..
Equipment I'm going to be using
2 ai prime led's
Reef Octopus Essence 130
4 inch sump sock
Pump jecod 7000 with one return line. (with two return lines jecod 9000)
2 gyre's 330 if I add the overflow in the center... if not one gyre only as I would add the overflow to one side of the tank..
Thanks Guys,
