Good idea, Im going to steal that one 2. LOL. No I just want to have more than 1 return. I can accomplish at least 2 returns by just adding extra fex heads, right? Also do you believe it is wise to drill the holes on the bottom rather then top or sides? I was also thinking about using overflow...

Costas, where are you?

Thanks-I let u know how it turned out.

Lets see those overflows! Making custom one out plexi-need some ideas.

Does any one have 2 returns and 2 intakes on a 75g? I would like to make 2 overlows 1 on each side. Does anyone have a special technique that they can share on how not 2 crack my tank? How far apart and what fittings to use?

Thats a good idea, Im going to do the same thing. Now in the future I can put the tank sideways. Bye-bye paint.

Even if I want 2 have 4 returns? Couldn't I just use a bigger pump? If not-can I at least go with 2. I want to install those flex heads.

In my case , being that im not using the ATO how will it work? I will need another pump correct? What size? Is there a god? Are women ever happy?LOL :hilarious

Thats it . :cheer: I only have about 12in to play with under the tank. Im thinking a 7 gallon maybe out of acrylic. I still need room for the stand. So what size pump would be sufficient for two returns? I would like to have 2 flows. Would it even be possible to have 4. 2 in the middle and/ 1...

Costa -how does the top/off tank work? I have an idea, but where does the water flow 2. I have decided to use the 2 10g= 1-for the intake and skimmer/heater. 2-for the fuge/return. If I put them side by side I can use pvc pipe to connect them right? If I do it your way how can I make it work...

I just remembered that I have 2 10g. Where should I incorporate them? I don't want them 2 go 2 waste.

Thanks for all your help.

Originally Posted by costa13 I personally would get the tank drilled, but when you drill it you also have to risk cracking it. I will have the guy downstairs do it for me, he also has is own plastic & arcylic shop. That is why I need the exact dimensions of the sump/fuge design. He could...

I really have know idea on how to measure out the tank for piping. Once I have the exact list of supplies and measurements I will still start again with the addiction.LOL. Thanks for the pics - it's a great idea. ***)
