[quote=phi delt reefer;17913893]Alright so here is the final design that i need some help with...
Some background on my tank design - its approx 40-45 gallons made of 10mm glass. The overflow will be made of 6mm glass. This will run to a 20long sump and the return will be a Eheim 1250. Should get about 200-250gph given my head loss (used the RC HL calculator)
I have a couple questions about implementing the I am going to have built soon if you don't mind assisting;
How should I place my bulkhead holes in my overflowbox so it fits all three pipes with regular tees (they dont make 1" sanitary tees from what i understand) and down turned 90s? I am planning on running 1 inch piping.
So what I really need to know is how wide each overflow pipe with a tee and a 90?
I want it to look like this (but have tees and 90's on all three pipes)
I went to my local Home depot and they didnt have any one inch pvc so I am going to have to find it online or check another HD (they seem to have it at HD Canada online...)
Is the weir/notch i made deep enough? My tank is only 12" tall so I don't want to loose a lot of water volume or have very obvious water line 3/4 up the tank for I am going for that rimless look.
Thank you all in advance - your help is greatly appreciated.
