so i finally got word i am staying in san diego, for at least 3 more years. that being said the wife has allowed me to upgrade to a 120g tank, 4x2x2, my dream tank for the last 2 years. there are compromises of course, like its on a 10" stand, i can't get proper lighting for 2 months, and she owns my soul..... well worth it!
i will add more pics as it comes along, this will be a slow process, and i will need help along the way, i have never plumbed a tank.
so i am at the point where i need to thread the pvc pipe, into a threaded bulk head, what thread size does it need to be, its a 1.5" overflow.
thanks and enjoy
jon

Is it just an illusion or do you just have one koralia pushing all the water in your tank?


EDIT: oh wait there's the second one
