Ok help me design my tank real quick!! ;)

I am pulling the trigger on this in a day or two and want your opinion.

The tank specs:
60Lx32Wx24H 200g
Starfire front and sides
Euro Braced
External Over flow

Questions:
1. What size holes should I do for the drain and return?
2. Will there be a problem with this size eurobraced?
3. How big should the overflows or overflow be?
4. What do you honestly think of the dimensions?

you should have 2, 1 1/2" drains, 2 1" returns.

You overflow should be around 24" of linear teeth on your overflow to surface skim efficiently.

Thats what was told to me when i was getting quotes for similar sizes.

Thats the type of info I was looking for. Any more suggestions? Do you think it's tall enough?

Ocea! I can't believe the prices! Are you very happy with your tank?

Very Happy with both of my Ocea tanks. I love my starphire glass frag tank. I was gone to Louisiana when Ty delivered it and when I returned I was wowed. Yes they have great prices. We are going to replace all of our tanks in the future. Ty is also a good person.
