Nice clean look to the tank with everything hidden away

Definitely nicer without the overflow towers.

Is that a glass tank? If so how did you attach the overflow? I made a sump with acrilic baffles from an old glass tank.I used silicone,and the baffles lasted about a month before the pressure broke the bond.Maybe I didn't use thick enough pieces

Yes, it's a glass tank. I used aquarium silicone to attach the acrylic piece along the sides and bottom. It is braced with eggcrate the entire length of the bottom, and with three strategically placed pieces in the top/middle which you can see in the fourth pic.

Ya Ok makes sence now.This would work good in a breeder type tank,they're a bit wider than a regular tank,so the loss of a few inches wouldn't be so bad.

Tank looks good, I was thinking of using a white background on my new tank.
