Trung, when I did mine, I fit all the pipe together, then figured out how to lose a few elbows, fit it together again, figure out a better way.............. I ended up with the same end result, but lost quite a few 45° and 90° elbows to reduce head loss.

Take your time to plan out the plumbing, then take your time on gluing everything together and you won't have any leaks.

Very nice tank!

sounds good, I'm going to give them a call tomorrow. Do they do quotes? I got a quote for 1150 for the tank i wanted, but it seemed a little high. What do you guys think? it's 48x24x24 eurobraced and staphire front panel only with center trapezoid overflow.

I can't tell you the price because my tank is weird size that's why it cost more than usual. Yes, they do quote for you.

Here is my design:

Hope your overflow keeps up with your pump w/o creating too much noise!
