    Want a custom tank. Acrylic or rimless glass. Experts come inside.

    Agreed! I think my best best is using a 6" pvc cut in half and used as an internal overflow. Should look nice painted black with the black background

    Need 3 holes drilled

    I need two holes drilled for to fit 3/4" bulkheads and one hole in the center to fit a 1" bulkhead. This is going to be drilled on a 1/4" back pane before i put the tank together.

    Yea thats what the guy had. A T outside with an airhole i think. How can I determine what flow this can handle? I would use two 1" holes for that pvc overflow.

    Want a custom tank. Acrylic or rimless glass. Experts come inside.

    Calfo is the guy who thought of that design (i think). I just came across an overflow made from pvc with a portion cut from the top. Sort of a coast to coast overflow. Whats your opinions on it? Heres a picture for reference although i would make it a bit longer.

    Want a custom tank. Acrylic or rimless glass. Experts come inside.

    I knew what you meant and it seems like teeth would be hard to do with glass. I would probably do teeth on an acrylic piece and glue it there. What im worried is my tank cracking from doing the overflow like that since its rimless and I heard of other peoples cracking as well. Thats why I...

    Want a custom tank. Acrylic or rimless glass. Experts come inside.

    That was my orginal idea but the shop beveled the edges of the back pane and now I dont know if they would even be able to cut that out. Plus I heard some instances of peoples tanks cracking from having that done. I really want to stay away from an internal overflow thats all I know.

    Want a custom tank. Acrylic or rimless glass. Experts come inside.

    Thanks for the advice. I live in Union, NJ and most places I tried calling some glass places yesterday and most people did not know about starphire glass. I got one person who said it wont be much of a difference since its only a 1/4 inch thats why I asked the question. I meant the drain hole...
