i figured i should post up a build for my new tank. i picked up a 120 gallon 4ft by 2ft dual overflow tank last week. i am going to be upgrading from my 72 into this so most of the equipment from that will be reused. the tank came with a stand (needs to be reinforced i think) and lights (for sale if anyone is interested).
I painted the back of the tank black yesterday. im planning on making a sump using a 40 breeder instead of the 20 high i have for the 72. the main thing i need help on is how i should plumb it? the tank came with a durso stand pipe and return in each overflow. i could leave it like this and it would be pretty simple to plumb but i am wondering if while i have it out and have access to the tank if i should change it and go to a bean animal or herbie style? what does everyone here think? if i do the bean animal or herbie how should i plumb it with the dual overflows? i think there is a 1inch bulkhead and 3/4 inch in each drain.
pics coming soon.
