Placing the bulkheads just inside the edge of the aquascaping goes a long way to hiding all hardware in the tank,the C/L feeds will not be seen at all, sometimes a return really needs to be at a certain place to get optimum flow and in that case you need to disguise it with small pieces of rock and or shells. There are ideal scenarios for getting the maximum blast for the buck and getting excellent flow, but this isn't a frag tank you are building, this is your tank and your aquascaping done to your design, it's up to me to figure out the best way to get the flow in the tank that you want. Paul now off to bed I tee off in 4 1/2 hours |

we are bring in a new glass from china, not sure what to call it but will name it "ever clear"for now, it's half the price of starsphire and i am told just as hard. Had a simple to see today and i like it is clearer than the starphire glass but here is two pic's for you to check out ![]() the new glass is on top and starphire is on the bottom ![]() again the same thing from the side If you like this idea there are only two problems, i know i just had to throw something else in there for you lol, 1) it looks thinner than the starphire 2) glass won't be here for another 2 to 3 months ![]() thanks Dave |

![]() Dave come on you tease.
Ok how much thinner in mm? Any reason to worry about their claims considering it's unknown glass in a way? It sure looks clearer! We'll have to talk lol. |

![]() If you look at the first pic I posted it shows the difference between the two types of glass, it is very slight! We are using their float glass now and I would have to say it is harder than the glass we were getting from ppg, you can ask Michika about that lol it took us over 8 hours to buff out some flaws we missed when we dropped it off.

![]() So I guess expect to see a tank in roughly 2-3 months as I am going to give this new low iron glass a shot. Looks very promising from what I do know about it so I guess we'll see!
