i did run into one problem though, i found that because of how i made the stand i had to turn one of the 2x4 inner legs due to the overflow...otherwise i would have had like a 15" wide by 6" overflow...and that just wouldnt do..so i have moved the 2x4 and now the overflow will only be roughly 12.5" x6"..hey its only 2.5"...but think of how much more coral i can add ...haha...maybe one or two pieces if im lucky...well the tank gets drilled tomorrow so wish me luck..oh any suggestions on the height of glass i should order for the over flow??? the internal measurements from inside to inside is 24"...should i go with like 22.5" you think?? im running a ocean runner 3500 which will put out 3500L/hr or roughly 1000 gallons per hour at aprox 4' of head...any thoughts or advice would be apreciated

Not 100% sure yet, i really want a yellow tang and a sailfin or blue hippo tang.... the tank will gradually become full of coral....not entirely sure as to what...im kinda taking suggestions at this point from anyone wanting to give them.. it will be a mixed tank of sps and lps...for the first while mostly softies, zoas and shrooms for the most part... i will get into some more impressive corals and fish after i get the tank stable for sure...and ideas as to what or how i should do this are welcome.. thanks for the reply and good wishes so far guys
