I have a BioCube 32 with an overflow and Bashsea MANO sump. I want to remove the plastic wall that creates the rear chambers to open up the display. Any thoughts or recommendations on a good way to do that?

That wall might make your tank strong, like a load bearing wall in an house.
How did you do it? And did you see a drop in the tanks stability?I did it on my 29 gallon biocube
The problem with this question is I’m not sure you would see a drop in the tanks stability. That is, until it shatters all over your floor. Without obvious bowing or cracks, there really isn’t a way to know how much force is on the glass and how much force the glass can handle.How did you do it? And did you see a drop in the tanks stability?
I currently have an overflow box with a you tube into my sump. I was simply looking at the possibility of extending my display without compromising the integrity of the tank as I would leave the plastic rim on if I removed the wall.The wall is part of the overall tank structure. I realize your desire but would recommend a hang on back fuge or even a hang on overflow box with a u tube then you can utilize a sump
You are right. I am asking how it was done. If anyone could share their experiences I would appreciate it. If not that’s cool too. I will get around to it one day and post pics.Realistically I don’t think you are asking the right question. Of course it can be done. What your asking is if others have done the same successfully. Meaning you are not sure if you are willing to accept the consequences of the tank failing.
Due to the manufacturing processes of our society, even if someone else done it successfully there is no guarantee you doing it would yield the same results.
All I’m really saying is own your actions and be sure you are willing to accept yours cases cause and effect.
And after lol if you decide to do it. Please show us because I would love to see it.
