if you're going to be drilling you might as well drill for 2 returns...the less lockline I see in a tank the better...then you can direct each return to a specific area in the tank

i dont really want to do 2, just because of the way i want my flow to go. my koralia will be on a JBJ ocean pulse and be on the opposite side of the loc-line, so it'll be sort of a mini wave maker

well in that case! LOL Look forward to getting pics

i change my mind way too much.

so i decided i dont want my aqua-C skimmer anymore because its not as good quality than what i could have from other skimmers approximately the same price.

So i've decided i want to get a vertex skimmer. only problem is i designed my sump to hold an aqua-C urchin(only a 6.5"x14" space). so what i would have to do is remove a baffle, and move my bubble trap over. also make my return pump exteernal (which i kinda wanted to do anyways.

pros-
-great german skimmer
-bigger fuge
-external return pump

cons-
-it kinda sucks to have to take out a baffle and a bubble trap
-lots of work and hard to do IMO

if anyone has ever removed baffles, please tell me how difficult it was. it would be super appreciated.

Two steps forward, one step back

ok, so update time:

things that are new:

-I'm going skimmer less baby! atleast for now

-im going to have 2 return holes like randi siad earleir on in this thread (for a cleaner look)

-I'm removing 1 baffle from my sump and getting it drilled so i can have a big fuge like i want

-RK2's seem impossible to come by now, so i think i'll get the RKL

Finaly found a tank i want my tank to look like! (link below)
