acrylic aquarium

[geoplane2]

Looking at a acrylic aquarium that has a center overflow box in the center of the tank ! Was looking for info on the overflow being in the center is there any difference thanthe overflow being in the corners ? the tank can be viewed on all sides and the wires to the lights go throught the center of the overflow. I dont see to many tanks like this thats why I am asking the question is there any difference ?

Not much of a diff from having them in the corner .....I usually rip them out and install a coast to coast on the back, you will increase the surface skimming as the corner and centers dont offer much at all .....
