2' cube tank design

i have a cabinet too.i made it so that the back panel can be detached.so the pipes can run straight down to the sump without drill holes in the cabinet.

Meaning cabinet largerthan tank base??Right

I am using a close loop system. (=

How's the closed loop functioning?

Theoritically, it seems like a good way of creating in-tank currents without a powerhead within, ain't it?

Seen your new tank setup. Very nicely done!

A larger version of what im planning to do...

Btw: you using eheim pumps?

yeap using Eheim pumps to drive my returns. hehz the close loop system is pretty strong, its creating a small crater in my sand bed. bleah. and to think I spent half an hour yesterday trying to level everything out, only to have it in a crater again.

Oooo... by then when the LR goes in, no prob already, coz the current will be dispersed before it reaches your DSB.

How about putting the overflow box in the centre?

In tis way, u can view the tank frm 4 sides instead of 3...
