Really Don't have an aim for this tank so I am building and compensating as I go. I do have a lot of ideas swirling through my head that will make it into the build. Follow along I will most likely need your help to iron a few things out. This will have mostly a "tritonish" style to it.

First things first I had to build a cabinet, I wanted it as tall as possible without being ridiculous, my last cabinet was a nightmare to stick my head in there and pull the skimmer out or any other equipment for that matter.

Not bad for my first attempt at something I plan on showing to people.

Drilled out the tank for the overflows I want: Now the debate is on return placement and whether to Drill them in or throw them over the top. It will have three RFG from Vivid Two as return maybe 3 haven't decided if two then one will be part of the closed loop system.

Any input is and will be greatly appreciated.
 
Looking good. Go with your gut. It is always easier to drill now than when the tank is full and in place. There is nothing that says you have to use what you install.
