Hey guys first post here. I just bought a 95 gallon wave tank that is drilled and I have a few questions. THis is my first drilled tank so I dont know what I need. I have two holes in my tank that I know I need to put pipes in and thats about it. I wanted to use a wet/dry setup too but need help on building that too. I have a 75 gallon reef with a sump. Its been up for a few years and now I wanted to do a predator tank so I bought this one. The sump that I have is quite simple. I have an overflow, skimmer, heater, and return pump thats it just the basics. So I wanted to expand my knowledge on pump systems with my new tank. So any help would be great. I have never plumbed a drilled tank or even set one up for that matter. Thanks.

hi joe.
you are going to want to build/purchase a durso standpipe and a return for your overflow.

the return is just a pipe coming up from your bulkhead with an elbow and whatever loc-line or spray bar you choose at the end.
the durso standpipe will make the overflow as quiet as possible.
without it usually sounds like a toilet flushing over and over and over and over.....well..you get the idea.
