{Removed a few pics from quote to save space.}

Can you explain how you made the black panels to cover the overflow wall, and how you velcro'd them on? I'm looking to add a glass overflow wall and was trying to figure out how to hide the piping behind it.

I may end up just buying 1/4" black acrylic sheet and just using that (held by silicone.)

I'm guessing you just used 1/8" black acrylic, cut the teeth, then stuck them onto the glass wall with velcro some how? Any pics of how you made the attachments?

Sorry I didnt see this post till now, if its not too late. The black acrylic was cut by the tank builder but yes its just 1/4" sheet with teeth cut into it & siliconed to the glass. The size & amount of teeth could make a considerable difference in water level. I had to open mine up some to allow more flow. The sides made of wood to match the stand & canopy is what was velcroed. Dont think velcro would do well under water.

Not much new besides equipment, I was still running stuff from my 120G & it wasnt keeping up. Bought a Euroreef RC500, Geo calcium reactor & the new Reefkeeper Elite controller. I will get some pics soon, thanks for the compliment JoJo.
