200 gallon Saltwater build

[dfringu]

putting a 200 gallon acrylic tank into a wall. Looking for filtration ideas that allow for a 2 sided (front & back) view while maintaining quality filtration.

Overflows on the 2 non viewable sides.

Or central overflow. could be cool to build rocks around it and put corals in the middle and leave the outsides for fish to swim

Then put the returns on the outsides so you arent taking in water that you just put out

You can check for ideas here 435 gallon in wall see through easy sps

It is also viewable from both sides

I'm actually looking at doing something similar. 220ish gallons (72x30x34) glass tank, in-wall, 2 sides viewable.

I'm looking at an external overflow box on one end so I don't take any tank space up.

Possibly with a bean animal style drain.

But I'm also considering the idea of adding a wavebox, which leaves me still hunting for drain ideas.
