Overflow Help
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey Reefers, Im very new to this . Im setting up my first saltwater reef aquarium. Trying to read as much as possible and not make too many mistakes. Im going to try and set up a bean animal overflow on my 180 glass tank. I will have to use an internal overflow box and do some drilling. Im not afraid. Anyway my concern is light. I dont want the overflow box to block my lighting. Can I get some input on my possible solution. Im thinking of a 1" to 1 1/2" box inside the tank on the back wall and an external box with my drainage pipes outside. Im hoping three or four bulkheads connecting them will solve my issue. Any feedback?
