Fantastic meowzer, thank you for doing this. You too Shawn and Corey Oh ha and you too Mr meowzer

That made me laugh, thanks Joe

That may be part of the problem, if you can get a refractometer, they are about $50 on this site. Much more accurate.

What are you using to measure the salinity?

So can I ask what is your expected time of filling this baby with SW - ETFTBWSW LOL

Hey Shawn, your slot is going to be wider than the calculations I made I think you will be fine at 3/4" below the eurobracing. I used even a lrager flow than what you posted I think I went to maximum flow at about 4' head on the pump. You will be lucky if the water rises 1/4" over the slot.

That is so cool meowzer, I would definately try to put them in another tank and try to raise them.

If anything the slot being a bit wider my calculation is conservative, or the rise over the weir will be lower since the weir will be wider. I wish I had a real accurate flow meter I would mess around a bit with overflow design. I think you should be alright with what you were thinking of...

Shawn I put a quick drawing together, what is your expected system flow. I think if you went with an overflow box as drawn below you would have potentially 3/4 of an inch of liquid going over the slot. If you take the area of the two 12 long slots = 28.44 sq in. THe internal overflow slots...

That happens you have to go really slow at the end. Search for my thread the jig I made makes it really easy. I don't know how to insert a thread?

That is a cool shot, I have to say again I love your tank.

I have drilled many holes if you have a lot of water it goes fast and safe. Here is the thread "Newbie - Drilling a Tank" ""

I had a thread going on how to drill a tank, look it up - you could make a dam with some plumber's puddy to finish of the hole - it shouldn't take more than a minute to drill as long as you have a lot of cooling water.

How big is the hole?

Sorry to hear that meowzer - we all lost something this week. Scott - bi colored blenny - he eats mysis all the time, and is fun to watch

Is that Ft Lauderdale

The rise will only depend on the drain size. You will only get a rise as you approach the maximum draining capacity of your drain (which in turn turns the turbine, LOL) and you know what will happen if you get past the draining capacity. The slots area needs to be close to but larger than the...
