![]() Are you sure you want to drill in the bottom pane of the glass instead of the back?

![]() Geez, that is an impressive tank. I love that orange plumbing! hee..hee...
Back to topic at hand...I don't think you need 2" drains for your primary Herbies in each box. If your emergency drains are 1.5", then that is all you need for the primary drains as well. 1.5" will save you money on the gate valves you'll need. Plus, you don't ever want the situation where the primary drains (2") are carrying MORE water than the emergencies (1.5") could handle.

Instead of a really tall tank ever think of stacking two inwall? if you do the spacing carefully and run some thick braces under the top one for safety it would look sweet. |

![]() I'm running darts for the closed loop they have two inch intakes... IF I go with the tall tank I don't think one dart would be enough. I have more then one so I may put them to use. One return, and two closed loops.. one for the top of the tank one for the bottom
Stacking tanks wouldn't be an option in my situation.
