Hey endy I am also setting up a rimless quick question can you remove the box covering the over flow? To have more room in those tanks

Simply put, no. You cannot do this.

Tank got wet

Tank got wet

Well over the weekend I was able to wet the tank. I did a freshwater test for a couple of days to make sure there weren't any leaks. Everything when really well except that when I when to try out my lights my PC's didn't turn on. I had to order two ballast to replace the blown ones so I will receive does on Friday. Besides that the tank is ready so hopefully this coming up weekend I will transfer everything from my biocube to the new tank. Here are some pics......

Flow looks OK and I will also have two MP10's inside the tank.

Porkyboy177 · Dec 7, 2011

Looks good so far, You might only need 1 mp10 with the ehiem1260. I have the same set up on m 57g and only run 1. More than enough flow
