My 240 gallon setup - Start to finish -

[408smokin]

Tank didn't come any overflow, so I decided to drill some hole for the buckhead attachment..

Few pics of it getting drill..

This tank came with 6 hole on the bottom of the tank. I guess it used toi run on a canister filter. I'm switching to a wet & dry.

Few pics of it getting plug up and silicon seal..

Why would you plug it up? Holes on the bottom are perfect for wet/dry.

and how do you use canister filters with holes...?

Beer bottles, Razor scooter, and working on a fish. Good times.

I don't think so.. When the power go off, I don't want 240 gallon of water on my floor.. I don't want to risk it..

its easy with an canister filter, one hole for water to go in and another for out. Canister can't overflow even if the power go off.. I got a few wet & dry lying around and didn't want to purchase any more filter..
