Hi, I need some help. Math and engineering is definitely NOT my forte. ;)
I'm having a rimless cube built and I need to figure out what size overflow and what size "teeth" cut into the top. It's a center column overflow in a 36" x 36" x 24" and I need to run a 1200gph pump. 3 holes will be drilled in the base of the tank inside the overflow for two 1" pipes and one 1.5" pipe. Just to have enough room for the bulkhead holes I'm figuring I need at least 6", but I have no idea how to calculate size for flow.
I want to double check vs what whomever builds my tank thinks.
