Going to use the front 2 holes. I put the extra 2 holes in the back in case I didn't like how the flow was and ever wanted to add or put a return there.

Ming, that tank looks sweet. Good luck with it.
Question for you, is the outline of the overflow box visible or is the whole inside visible (durso)?

Russ,
The teeth of the overflow box is a black acrylic piece which goes down to the bottom of the overflow box preventing you from seeing inside. Its being held in place by another 2 black acrylic pieces perpendicular to it on either side of the overflow box so you can't see inside the overflow box from the side either. All 3 pieces are not held by silicone so they are removable if needed.
I also asked them to make me a black acrylic cover for the overflow box which sits perfectly on top just to muffle any overflow noise, and also looks more nicer. I took the cover off before taking the pic.
The tank stand and canopy is current being built slowly by me. I estimate about 3 weeks if I'm diligent on building it before its complete and ready for the upgrade.

You can always hook up an OM 4-Way and use the four holes in the euro-brace for the output.

I went with the Water Blaster HY7000 for return. 1800 GPH @ 88W. Less wattage and flow with head pressure ofcourse.
The OM 4-Way seems like a good idea, especially since there's exactly 4 holes. I remember Pierce had some rusting on his. Not sure if its a common problem or not though.
That also messes with my whole plumbing diagram I already drew out :lol2:
