OG's 120G build

[babyjess210]

Got a text from CD saying that my tank will be ready on wednesday! Hopefully AA will be done with my sump soon as well. So lets talk equipment. I ordered a Vectra M1 for my return pump so that's taken care of. My question is what I should do for flow. Would it be better to go with 4 MP 40's or 2 MP 60's?

I ran 2 MP40 on my 150 and it was good for SPS. Stop teasing and let see that tank naked

I currently have 2 MP40s on my 60 x 30 x 20 and it's plenty of flow but I do have an open aquascape. I did add a Tunze 6095 down the back side of the tank to prevent a dead spot.

cool! maybe I'll do an MP60 on one side and 2 MP40s on the overflow side.

Got the tank up on the stand!

This tank is awesome and well built! Each of the corners has a thick tapered plastic strip for added support. I'm really happy with this purchase.

They're not making me a new tank. They're just removing the euro bracing and making it recessed.

Why do you choose to have it recessed? What are the pros to this

I chose to have it recessed because I like the look to it. Wether it's recessed or flush the euro bracing does the same job. I'm going to put a screen top on this so it will keep in place and not slide off.

Water doesn't run down the glass with recess.

Looks good Eve

Thanks for the heads up!

Oh! my bad. I thought you were asking the difference between recessed and flush euro bracing. Yeah, I love the way rimless looks but water easily splashes out. Also with the fish I keep I have to run a glass top or a net so that kind of defeats the purpose. With euro bracing you can run a magnetic cleaner at the surface and the water won't splash out.

Something that I did was went to the glass store and they cut all my pieces and I built my 75g tank
