I have a completly stock nanocube 24 which was used for only 3 months for sale, and I also might sell my heavily modded NC24 with a 150w HQI and 500+gph if the price is right, looking to upgrade a bit.

I have never seen a 29 RR unless you are talking about buying one someone has had drilled. If you are wanting one with a overflow box you can order one from Glasscages for under $100, or just put your stuff in a rubbermade container while you have your 29 drilled. Usually cost around $20.

my advice would be to have it drilled, then buildyour own over flow it.s fairly easy. and BK would probably help you drill it if you offer him a frag of something

i am looking for one that is drilled already, that i can just swap all of my stuff over to and then sell the not drilled one. the reason i want to do it this way is cause i dont want to mess with drilling it and it possibly breaking and i am not a diy type of person. i dont want this to look like a 3rd graders experiment i want it actually to look nice and professional. i have never done anything having to do with cutting glass or acrylic and i havent ever did anything with silicone either and believe me i have seen alot of people on here way over do it on the silicone. one thing i will need help with though is plumbing and a return pump that will be after i have my sump installed in a couple weeks. i am a little straped on cash at the moment so i am trying to buy all of this piece by piece, and still make sure i got everything that i need for the upgrade. im just simply tired of having to chase down my nitrates with 25-30% water changes weekly and they still keep rising so hopefully the new sump will fix that.

 

[twizzlerman77]

also thinking about plumbing my 10 gallon into the same system to make it a little more stable. Or should i just keep this a seperate system and use it kinda like a Q.T. tank?

Do you have any nutrient export in the tank currently? a sump in of itself will not relieve nitrates. if you have no cheato or anything now a spot to grow it in will help relieve some problems. A sump is really more for getting all the equipment out of the main display tank.

 

[twizzlerman77]

i plan on making it a fuge with live rock and cheato under my tank i hope that this will reduce the amount of water changes that i need to make and yes i need/want to get everything out of the tank i like the look of drilled tanks better and they seem to run alot smoother and look better in the long run but thats j.m.h.o. anyways with that added i am still looking around for a tank havent found any yet.

I hope you find the tank your looking for, but if you don't I would also suggest drilling it. Drilling is generally more cost effective than trying to purchase a "RR Tank". If you want something that looks nice that you don't have to build yourself check out glass-holes on the net. They have boxes, kits, and free shipping. That may help you avoid the " 3rd graders experiment" look.

Adding a fuge should help your nitrate problem, but you still should try to address what is creating the problem in the first place.

As for the 10 gallon tank... A QT is priceless. You hear so many stories about how one fish or one coral absolutely wrecked someones tank. I doubt you want to be the one telling that story.
