Wavebox

[REEF-DADDY]

I've decided on a wave box for my tank and have 3 questions. My tank will be 72"x36"x2".
1. Current designs call for an overflow on the back wall on each end. Will this work?

2. Can I mount the wave box non centered, meaning more towards the front?

3. Does it come with mounting hardware?

It comes with mounting hardware that will work provided their won't be a canopy or perimeter bracing. If either applies you need the magnet holders.

On a 36" wide tank it will need to be within 12" of the center to work.

Corner overflows will work but the wave will be shorter and the overflows will be noisy from being starved of water and then filled when the wave returns. You get some splashing noise and the best you can do to control it is use a Durso pipe and low flow through the overflows.

Thanks! Just so I have this straight;

If I have enough flow to get the detrius to the overflow, the wavebox will take care of the rest?

Yes.I would still have at least 10* an hour circulation.
