The 6 foot!

There he is… one of the sources of all my tank troubles

@UncommonSense , thank you so much.

It’s late so I can’t think of a follow up 😆, but will I be safe just pulling up the bead of silicone? Ofcourse I’ll clean it after and peel up reamaining, I just idk if pulling it all up will cause issues.
Of course, and totally understandable!

Regarding peeling up the remainder of the bead:

— be careful here, the work quality is unknown beyond the area you already worked in… it may pull right out near-effortlessly for all we know…

— BUT, if you do hit a section where the silicone actually stuck well to the glass, you’ll want to employ a razor blade to break it free; I like the ones shaped like a rectangle with squared sides/corners… you can use the glass itself as a straight edge when cutting to prevent nicking a structural seam! (That is, you run the squared side of the blade along the pane in such a way that the cutting edge of the blade cannot wander into the glass:glass seam!)
 
Should I do

A) Left Corner, Main and Secondary.
Right Corner, Emergency and Return

Or B

Scrap the Secondary,
So left corner is like this.

and then right corner would be another one of those pipes on the left, the straight pipe and a return

or something else

Congrats! 6ft is such a great length!
 
Thinking of running the GYRE's on the back wall, and getting some new power heads for side panels.

Corner overflow takes up real estate to fit the gyre
 
Following along!
 
stand is almost done!!
