Drilling Nuvo 20

[dayttu17]

Just ordered a Nuvo 20 which I am going to remove the AIO and drill for a sump. Question

Where would you drill the overflow hole which is 2.25”?

Center or Corner?

Thanks

Bump for advice or preference

Following here, I’m planning to drill an IM 25 Lagoon and am debating between placing the overflow in the center with two returns on each side, or having an overflow in the right corner with a return on the opposite side. Any advice on which setup would work best?

what light do you plan on using? If its tank mount put the over flow on either side

@reeflife3 The plan is to set up a small frag tank using a Radion XR15 G5 with a tank mount.

I ended going with overflow one side and return opposite with mp10 on same side.

Yeah I would do one side return one side overflow. That’s my one dislike about my Nuvo 20. The returns being in the middle!
