No overflows. This has 1" bulkheads with 2 closed loop systems under the tank. Easy maintenance stuff

I Hate You.

Not at all really :P Im just gettin a tad jealous that you get to play with all this expensive stuff. I'm sure itll turn out awsome, as the scape already looks great

Hope to see more pics soon.

Is there any reason why you are going with a timer for the solonid and not a pH meter? I figured a pH metered solonid would be better for constant CO2 levels
