Greetings, A new 180 is in the works and lot's of planning also ! So many variables to consider. I want to plan this install with the best overall circulation, ease of maintenance etc. This means from the bottom of the stand to the ceiling where the lights hang and everything in between! Lot's of variables! I'd appreciate op's on many aspects as they comes along. So where do I start?
There are two things I do know for sure No reef ready tank. I will install a herbie bean type overflow.. No diy coast to coast however. I will purchase a Synergy Ghost overflow. My 1st variable I'm thinking about is placement of this overflow somewhere along the back of the tank. I want to place it offset to right or left of center. This will make plumping a lot easier and keep the drops as short and vertical as possible.
So If I place this overflow well to one side . Will it hinder the efficiency of surface skimming ? Where would You place the return line or lines? Thanks for sharing any Op's on this.
