Do you think I am making too many holes in the back glass would laminating with acrylic help?
for the CL I am thinking sequence dart returning ~ 2000 gph after head losses
Return pump Mak 4 ~1000 GPH after head loss
Plus a tunze 6100 on a single controller
= ~6000 gph or 50 x turnover
I will be moving an overcrowded 75 worth of stuff in including ~100 LR
Debating the sand issue with 50 X turnover I am worried about a sand storm
The tank will have a 60 gal as a sump with ~40 gals of water an ASM G4X for a skimmer and an aqua-chill 1/4 hp chiller, and downdraft style Ca reactor
Thoughts...things I have overlooked...? any comments would be appriciated
Thanks
Dan

Sand will fly with Tunze pumps if it is a small / medium particle size.
If you get oolite (smallest possible size) it will fly a LOT LESS because particles are sitting closer to each other. also having the oolite sand is better because you food left overs and general dirt will not go deep in sand bed and your cucumbers and sea stars will have good chanse to clean all that up, also you will need only 1 inch of it.
All above is my opinion and there cuold be others.Thx for reading.
