I've built a tank haha sorry I'm not on here very often

If you're still doing this i'll try and respond to as much as possible

What style overflow are you doing? what adhesive are you using?

definitely a good choice of skimmer I'm running the 150 myself

also that's a good link posted for thickness i used the same one to figure it out. basically the higher tank you make the thicker the glass will need to be

Here's my build link if you wanted to take a look:
