Any cheap returns that be fine for my tank ?

Since you have two holes in the overflow, there's gonna be two pipes (one almost at the height of the teeth and another around halfway in the overflow). The shorter pipe is going to be connected to a gate valve to control the flow through the pipe to make it silent while the drain will either remain dry or there will be a small trickle flowing through it (without the trickle, you might need occasional adjustments of the gate valve to keep the level of water in the overflow consistent). That's herbie. And yah, if you want to run a reactor, you are good with a 1200gph. And don't worry about being budget tight; you can definitely have a great tank without all the fancy stuffs. I am an international student so I know :) In the end, its all about how well YOU take care of the tank.

Well got all the material I need to fit my stand together.
Got the "crew" working on it now , hope they know what there doing.

Updates coming soon !!

When I thought life , was kicking me in the butt . My buddy called me today and I should be running beads again by next week in Calgary (bonus) . Maybe Christmas won't be that bad after all . And I won't have to cheap out on gear for my tank :)

Glad to hear that :) Just make sure you don't fall for "you get what you pay for" hype (yes thats a marketing hype for me!!!!) and buy things that you "need" instead of paying for fanciness. Example: don't spend money on vortec but instead get a proper light for the tank :smile:

Hint: ATI sunpower!!!!!!!! :mrgreen:
