Internal overflow construction started today. The GE1200 does seem more like an "adhesive" rather than a sealant like I have used before. Very little ordor also is a huge bonus.

I did screw up in the previous pics by putting both ends on first but it all worked out. Deciding now whether to cover overflow with a thin black acrylic or just wait and let it eventually cover up with coraline algae.

Thanks Brightwhite and JHammer! Tank should of been going months ago but..... it shouldn't be long now. Only thing I am not looking forward to is the actual changeover as the 180 is going exactly where my 120 is sitting right now.

Overflox box is done and now ready to be attached to the tank. Hard part is getting it perfectly level and at the right height. I have decided its going to be lowered a bit from whats seen in the pic
