I want to order a large tank 120"L x 36"w x 30"h One end of this tank would protrude though a wall to a storage room where sump and related equipment would be hidden from view. I've been asked how many drains and overflows and where I want them.
For this set up, I would like to have any of these built into the end of the tank that will be through the wall. The bulk of the tank will be 3' off the floor and separate dining and living area in a split level. It will be a highly visible show type set up, so I want clean lines and minimal utensils showing inside the viewing portion.
How does the overflow work and are drains drilled into the bottom of the tank inside the overflow? I've searched the archives and find nothing specific to 'drains'.
I'm sure I'm missing something very simple, but I'd like to know what to tell the company guy what I want, based on some good reasoning.
Thanks for your help
