Re: Bob's buildin' a 180!!!!
Are you going to go over the top with the closed loop or are you going to be drilling?

Re: Bob's buildin' a 180!!!!
Ah drill it if you can figure out if it tempered or not. Cleaner look IMO and gives you much more options. Or you could just do powerheads. They would be easier than going over the top and probably look better too.

Bob are you going to be running a remote sump or understand sump?

Re: Bob's buildin' a 180!!!!
Make sure you set the sump tank in the stand to make sure you really want to do the closed loop. The pumps are huge and take up a lot of room, look at some of my newer pics to get an idea if the 60 has a 4' footprint.

Re: Bob's buildin' a 180!!!!
Start making water. I made the mistake of not doing it and it took FOREVER to start filling up my tank.
