Exactly! I have seen pictures of this tank before and it's a "coast to coast" overflow. Basically most of the back panel has cut outs like a typical overflow. This overflow spills into a 5”X5” or so tray box that is attached to the back of the aquarium. This design doesn’t use any aquarium real-estate at all and can move large amounts of water.

Yes it is attached to the back of the tank..The top was welded on then the builder went back and routed (Fluted ) the teeth in without damaging the integrity of the glued top pretty trick !!!!

Awesome, good to see it up & running...
Very nice but i made some mistakes Brother Missed ya for sure QUOTE=LOPAKA;5273340]WELL SAID !!!!!!!!!!!!!!![/QUOTE];)

Yeah, maybe we should throttle back on the lifetime ban. I've put my foot in my mouth more than once, no one’s perfect.
;)the filtration after the 190 gallon sump there are two Wlim pumps one directly to an Ultima 4000 the other is just max flow yet to be hooked up a dolphin ampmaster so total flow will be at 9000 GPH......
