Mike thats not much wiggle room when the display drains.
What's breaking the siphon? A hole in the return or return line exit?

there was holes yes but also its that the lines barely go beneath the surface so they break before water goes below the holes in the overflow box. the holes the way he had them was making a splashing noise in the overflow so i sealed them. tank is basically dead silent now only noise is slight hum from pump but only hear it when house is all quiet at night with no TVs on and such. ive tested power failures many times now and it doesnt drain to much but very close haha.

Thx I think I move a rock or two a day at least lol. Although I am considering a rescape and basically turning it into two islands and leaving center area clear because of this glass brace in middle makes it hard to work and move around it.

Sweet tank. I have a 150 in my garage that I will be setting up sooner or later and you gave me some ideas. Thank man.

Man, you had me tripping until I realized that your frag rack is on the front glass. At first it looked like it was laying across some rocks in the back like a bridge and then because thats what I thought when you started to move the camera to the right, I thought your frag rack was moving like you had some kind of moving fragrack. And then I noticed it was on the front glass. Really trippy dude! Great Tank!

I was out of breath watching your fish keep up with that wave maker. Very nice!
