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!
