Grizz's 8' - 300 gal + 60 gal + 30 gal OMG Build!!

going to be really nice the ultra thin skim of the surface you'll be able to do with that thing. clever idea to porop the glass up too!

Looks like a cool project. That is a lot of holes drilled in the back. What pump are you going to use to run the closed loop?

ya Greg, tell us all about your closed loop !! We want to know more bout this awesome closed loop you're planning for this tank. We all know how much you LOVE closed loops.

I assume that you've read up on all the bean animal stuff, but just thought I would mention how its been brought up several times on his RC thread how tough it can be to make a double BA setup work the way you want it to. I run a regular BA and love it...though I've had some challenges with it initially.

Looks great. you now have another groupie.

And another one.

I to thought it was never going to happen but it is on like donkey kong now.

It was a very ingenious thought I had for sure, wasn't sure how at first how I was going to get the bottom of the OF set but I hit me like a bad case of the tropical runs.

ABSOLUTELY NO closed loop, those are all return lines.

Yes I have read up a lot on the BA and most are only taking on 2000 gph, I will be pushing A LOT more flow. There is going to be 4 DC10000 pumps for my returns that way I can control how much flow I get in every 2' of tank length.
