oh yeah i forgot, where can i get cheap glass, i went to speedy glass and they charge 10.75 sq/ft i ordered 4 pieces and it came to 75 bucks, so i said no thanks and left, but i really would like to get some glass cut for it. what is the minimum thickness i should get for the glass also.

Yup got another question.... lots of questions. ive got rona enamel black spray paint. the ingredients are as follows

Acetone, propane, xylene,aliphatic naphtha and isobutane.

i also have a empty can of krylon fusion paint and the ingredients are as follow

acetone, propane, toluene, butane, V.M.&P naptha, xylene, 2-butoxyethanol, methyl isobutyl ketone.

now to me and most people that doesnt mean much, but the label doesnt say anything about lead being in the rona one, like other ones do, so i was wondering would it be safe to use on the pipes in my overflow??

as far as I know spray paint is ok to use in fresh and saltwater as long as the paint is fully cured, try this spray your piping and let it dry for 2 days then soak the pipe in freshwater to wash any residue(shouldnt be any but just incase) and you should be sailin towards the sunset.

Btw love the new cube are you painting the back or using acrylic overlay?

i am painting the back black,though i am having a hard time getting it to stick all over. i will post pics when im done. i thought about it, and the bulkheads and loclines and manifold will all be black, so it is hidden, black kinda gives all the colours of corals pop, and it hides stuff better. its an external overflow, so i just put some eggcrate in the one spot , there is no way and fish are getting threw there, unless its a pipefish.

Or a small clown... Wouldn't be the first time a fish has gotten sucked threw eggcrate..

you couldnt even get a dime through the opening, so how could a small clown get through? there is a picture of it up above, i have eurobracing so they cant get over the top of the eggcrate.

Mine got thru, fishytimes got thru (multiple times).... Trust me, small fish get thru.

Just don't buy small fish to avoid the problem I guess. haha!
