My tank is not euro braced. If I had received it way back when (before my tank was somewhat established), I would have definitely tried to work it into the system. I'm a little bummed that it's not going to work in my application. It really is a nice looking pump, and very solid. There is nothing about it that feels "cheap".Since it's a pump that's designed to be mounted lower in the tank I can see your dilemma now. Is the tank eurobraced? There was a guy on another site that planned on mounting one up there with an adapter he made. Looked pretty cool.
