Help with Landen RS60 aquarium

[rich15244]

Hey there I’m new to community

I’m considering diving back into the saltwater aquarium hobby. While doing some research about setting up a new tank I came across the Landen RS60 as an option because of the cost considerations in setting up a new tank.

However, as I was exploring the vendor's site, a couple of questions popped up that weren't entirely clear from the photos. I was hoping someone might be able to shed a little light on them for me.

My main curiosity is about the rear overflow system – I couldn't quite piece together how it functions with just a 3.5 cm width & runs the length of the tank. Also, I was trying to locate where the return nozzles are situated. The images didn't quite show that detail, and I'm keen to understand their placement.

Any guidance or extra info you could share on these points would be incredibly helpful as I finalize my plans.

Thanks

this one might require contacting the manufacturer!

the image honestly looks a bit photoshopped, unless they are using glass strips to turn sections of the overflow box into return plumbing passages, this cannot actually function as an overflow w/return plumbing, particularly with the submerged overflow intakes requiring a second weir inside the overflow box, consuming even more of that space!

Personally? I’d look elsewhere!

Hi, I have an rs 90 and I can tell you exactly how the overflow works.

Basically it’s a small external overflow in the shape of a V that runs down to a chamber at the bottom. I can send you a picture

Sorry for the delay. Great video explained a lot. Considering a setup for the fall and I like the narrow box design. Comparing to a Pro Star V2 setup. If you don’t mind me asking what are your overall impressions on the setup.
Thanks

So far so good. I think the tank is extremely well done for the price. I still am having a hard time finding any reviews on the tank itself or any of landens saltwater larger tacos so I actually have a thread myself of my build.

This isn’t really an external or internal overflow. The manufacturer calls it an “ultra-slim overflow.” This type of overflow is actually the most commonly used design among reef keepers in China. As you probably know, Landen is a Chinese brand that manufactures its products in China primarily for overseas markets.
