Ok cool, thanks! I will just glue it in then. I was wondering why the heck there would even be a hole there, but then figured out that they probably intend to allow people to install skimmer cup cleaners into this hole.

Kien....after looking at your tank pictures I told myself I can't let you take all the glory, so I promptly ordered myself another tank. Hopefully I will get it going before Christmas....

My guess is the hole is so you can retrofit a neck wiper, and thus the red cap is something you put on if you don't have that. If it were me, I would silicone it in place rather than weld-on so that it's easy enough to pull off in the future if you get an auto cleaner.

Ya, that makes sense. Great idea about the silicone!

As usual Kien leaves us wanting more pictures of everything to do with his tank. Jealously and admiration are the name of the game.

One of these times when I am back in Calgary I will have to whine and whimper to see your tank in person I have been told it is a sight to behold in itself
