For the overflows in my tank, I have wholes drilled for two 1.5" bulkheads. I forget the exact dimensions, but if you go to www.savko.com, they have them...sorry if this is a silly question, but aren't you guys on the metric system? I thought us silly Americans were the only ones who talked in feet and inches

Thanks Mcliffy.
Yes we are on the metric system over here but i am pretty comfortable with either and since the majority of my "audience" are from the states i thought it would be easier to use feet/inches. "When in Rome, do as the Romans do" .

That's exactly what i was working on actually. I think i will increase the tanks length by about 7 to 8 inches and partition that area off for waveboxes/streams etc etc. I might also try to work in the overflow into this added space. Alternatively, i could increase the width of the tank and partition an appropriately sized area off to be used as the overflow.

I will also look into adding a few more holes as per your suggestion (maybe a few different sizes as well) in the event that i do change/add pumps in the future.

4" wave?? That's pretty big!! How low should i go?

Thanks for the kind words and guidance Ed. It is very much appreciated.

Sounds like you are thinking of something similar to what Bricky did with his overflow/Tunze wall. You've probably seen his thread, but just in case: http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1206908&perpage=25&pagenumber=12
