 The newly installed overflow pre-acrylic facing   getting the acrylic ready- used 60 grit sandpaper to make sure the bond to the glass is perfect and long lasting thats all for now...have to wait till tomorrow to post pics (hopefully) with acrylic installed on the front of the glass as well as the overflow combs and as a side not: if i don't post any updates for a bit its cause my car died and im now in the middle of a new purchase ...yay..and nay  ...haha :P... ill post new pics of the new car too if i get it..haha

Looks great. If I do build my own tank next time (and it's glass) then I'll definitely use some of your ideas, cause I can see you know what you are doing (or at least fake it really well
 )
