Milky Way Galaxy,
Is it even possible to get tanks this big with built in over flows? Really need to know thanks.

If not how big of a tank would I need for an over flow? How big will the tube (lengthxwidth) have to be to keep the over full 2/3 full and how deep will it have to be in the tank? Also how many gph will the return pump have to be? Is there a formula for all this?
 
ATM made 3000gal tank with overflow
 
Not really looking to make one we need to buy one with the over flow built in. Thanks for your input though. Would you happen to have the link? Maybe it's not so hard.

If you're going to have a tank built, consider going with external overflow boxes...you'll have even more room in your tank.

Just Google Acrylic Tank Manufacturing in Vegas. They'll make any size of tank, with any kind of specs like built-in overflow, color background, color bottom, round corner, peninsula, etc... for you
 
Thanks for all the input guys I might as well tell you what we are trying to do. I'm starting a wild life conservation club at my highschool. For the first project we want to do a native marine tank. We are getting sponcers and funding from the school to do this(it's a private school). I need Information for my proposal. Like filtration cost, tank cost, maintence, ect.... We have a huge theater arts center. It used to be our basketball court and now since we built a new gym it's for theater arts with plenty of extra space. So all information and what I'll need will be great guys thanks. I'm reading the links now.
