Can't be half as crazy as that couple on that show Tanked that was spending $30,000 on the quarantine tanks though.

They were very specific about it too! LOL
The guy was watching like a hawk! I wouldnt want them to scratch my petrified african wood kitchen counter tops either lol!
I think we could have made em a QT system just as good and pocketed the extra $20,000!

Who wants to open a tank store with me? SW, tanks, and stands/cabinets only!

I've often thought about it, but the liability is insane......

I think its called a wier or something....they should be able to just get you the glass with the rectangle cut out of the top! Than just add the box to the back and put the bulkhead in the bottom of that! Im no pro though like corey and acrylic lol as ive yet to even attack my sump system!

Al to be totally honest I wouldn't have a clue as to how a glass place cuts the notch/slot as it's shown....Maybe your friend at the glass place might shed some light on it for us......I've drilled holes in plenty of glass, but never cut slots......It would have to be some sort of diamoned coated bit to do so though I would think......I'd like to try it sometime though....I think I could do something like that with a RotoZip, some diamond coated bits, and a jig to keep my straight......

That's what I was thinking. Either a diamond grinder/rotary bit, or drill two holes and finish the rest of with a grinder/roto zip with a diamon blade and a steady hand.
