PS, I just want to help to prevent problems, not state things now just to through it in your face later.
This is what I didn't want to get into, but ya, this is an issue you're going to have with your bulkheads .....

Looking forward to seeing your glass box!!

I checked out some of these L tanks on RC, there's one a fellow by the name of Peter and Mr. Wilson did that is absolutely mind blowing. I think it was 1,350 gl dt, then all the support systems. Never in my life will I have or want a build like that, but that's the nice thing about this hobby, you can do what suits you, try something different and have something to enjoy "most" of the time for many years.

If you watch the show "Tanked" they did an episode which included installing a feeding tube into the return.

Why do you need a feeding tube?

Your tank will have access from the top, right?
