Over-flow/ side mount

[deric203]

Can this be done. 135 gallon 72x18x24. Will a side mount overflow work. Can I get enough skimming from the top of the water for the length of the tank? Glass tank with no drilled holes.
The more reading I do, the more confusing. PC/no PC, halide/no halide, wet-dry/no wet-dry, refugium/no refugium, this brand/that brand.
Maybe I'll start a thread entitled My Salt Water Tank Built By Forum Members Recommendations.
Pictures of a tank containing plenty of air to follow.

If you have good flow it will work.
Thay make room dividers with overflow on the end works well.
Pc are good in small tanks.But with a 135gal will need a lot of them to be effective and do not penetrate to the bottom in tall tanks.
Wet/dry good with fish only and fish with lr not as much in reef.
(Note) must keep clean as well.
Refugiumslove them i thank all tanks will benefit from one...
Brand well most all tanks will work ok look at glass size and warranty.
And as far as thread

thay will be a long one...
