Tank

[Dace]

I'm looking to buy a new front and one side pane starphire fish tank 6'x2'x2' and was looking for some advice on where to purchase and also on what size overflo and how many and where should the overflo be located. should i get one overflo with like a 2 1/2" drain or two overflos with like 2 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 drains. what size would the returns be. thanks

Get your tank built by http://miraclesaquariums.com/. They've been doing a lot of nice tanks and if my tank was glass I would have gone with them. They have a lot of sweet tanks on RC, here's one in their forum http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=829314. Go with external overflows. Is this going to be an island tank (where both long sides are viewable)?

Daceman, I agree with Paul! Andrew (Montepora) just received his tank last month and everyone who have seen it says it looks great. I plan to see it next weekend if my driver is avilible to take me. He bought a 72"x30"x24" three side starphire tank with two external overflows, I designed all the specs for it. Let me know if you need help with a drawing of the layout you want, I can draw it out pretty quick and Derek will built it without any mistakes.

I should be sending a deposite for my 36"x36"x26" starphire cube sometime next week. They told me the delivery time is about 6 weeks right now, hope my knee will be good by then.

it's not a tank thread

it's a tank question.

I agree with the miricles in glass recomendation.
The tanks I've seen from them all look amazing.
I would not buy another glass cages tank.
