hi, I am upgrading to a 120 gallon 48x24x24 tank and want to drill this time. would a corner weir with drilled bottom or overflow closer to top of tank be better? would one of whichever I go with be enough? also,which is less noisy?

thanks for all the info.one question though,what is the eurobracing?

will look into styrfoam if I upgrade,also,my 75 I have now is on a flat stand but the bach glass is just slightly past back edge of stand. the tank has the top and bottom frame. would such a small overhang be stressing the back glass? thanks for all the help.

hi, Is a metal stand with just metal frame for tank to rest on safe for a large tank or should there be a flat surface for whole bottom to sit on? worried about pressure breaking bottom with support only around edges of tank.

I live in winnipeg and yes the tank will be glass. I will stick with a pet store tank with the frame.only bad thing is then I can`t drill bottom if tempered. would drilling side and using side overflow work just as good? I feel safer going tempered bottom anyways with a big 120 gallon tank.

apparently 48x24x24 is an odd size and he can`t get this size.

hi, I am moving a few miles soon and wondering how most of you have accomplished this?? If I can have the stuff torn down and moved to new place same day,can I mix new water and add maybe 25 gallons water from old location and put live rock and fish back in same day? the tank is 75 gallons. I...

has anyone checked out the new coralife aqualight advanced halide? this would be an alternative to the aqualight pro for me by putting 2 at back of my 75 gallon tank. the bulbs are 20,000k , would these give nice coloring without actinics?

I can pick up a pro clear with skimmer built in for $175.00 us. I would remove balls and use for a sump for my 75 gallon tank. it only holds 8.5 gallons though,is this big enough? also is the skimmer any good in this unit? I would use the supplied overflow box also.
