o.k so im slowly but surely starting to collect all my materials for my 500 gallon tank that i will be building( im in no hurry as i just built my 200)
. It will be plywood with glass in the front and the dimensions are 8x4x2. my main question is should i make a built in overflow on the back wall, basically like a huge overflow box ?? or what i wanted to do is just make it RR witht he built in overflow's. But i dont know how many overflows to go with? do i just make two of them? one in each corner right? and if so how big for this tank should they be? something like 8inx8in?? or should they be larger?? i will also be using a 100 gallon fuge to filter so how large should the holes be from the overflow's? 1 1/2?? i plan on using two 3000 gph return pumps so i need to figure out the diamter the holes should be and if this would work out with flow rate??
im good at building tanks, but dont know all that much about dimaeter with flow rate so if anyone could help me out i would appreciate it!!
