Tank looks like its comming along nicely! My 212g will be next thing on those tables hopefully... What kind of drain are you going to be using? Are the 2 holes for a herbie?

This is going to be an awesome setup
Whoever cut those glass holes did a really nice job

I'll wager you get this wet before I do mine
Seems I'm kinda falling behind everyone as I started mine back in Jan and am still fussing
Stupid anal-retentiveness

Herbies all the way, it's nice to be able to watch tv at a low volume when your tank is right next to it and be able to hear clearly. I would highly recommend it!

Couldn't agree more.

This tank looks nice! I can't wait to see this build's progress.

A single drain over flow will also run quiet if it's set up properly. Mine is virtually silent.

I thought herbie was more based on dual drain safety.

Nice set up Subman. Looking forward to seeing more.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
