Hi Guys,
I'm new here to the board and I had a few questions for you all.
1. I'm in the market for a 60gallon cube aquarium. And was wondering before I order the tank. Can someone lead me onto the right path for plumbing the tank properly.So I can have enough flow to make a reef system thrive. I plan on having a sump/fuge setup too..The main thing is a guide on where to have the holes drilled. so I can tell the aquarium folfs where I want them.
The tank is going to be a reef setup with corals,softies,a few fish, And
If I have enough lighting a clam.
2. I would also like to have a closed loop setup for added flow.
I understand kinda how that will be plumbed ,again hole placement is still a mystery to me. For my overflow to sump and fuge how big is needed to get good turnover? (Size and placement of bulkheads)
Well that should help me get the tank ordered. And I can get started on the stand.
Btw: Does anyone know of a place that sells ready made 24x24x24 tanks? All I have seen Is custom places. Also I would really like to have a acrylic tank. Just Because I like the way they look.(please don't start telling me why I Don't want a acrylic tank. I have heard them all.)
Thank You all for the great info on the site. Hope I can get this baby up and going. If and when I start I'll Be sure to have lots and lots of pics.
