I'm not sure what is better, the mockup or the actual overflow. Looking forward to touching base with Rick and getting that thing on the tank.

Think we can get a group discount? haha Are you having to re-drill yours?I'm planning on grabbing one, too.

Haha! Yeah, I'll be removing the huge overflow on the back, plugging up the holes on the bottom, and redrilling on the back. 
I'm not sure if you've drilled glass before or not, but its not a big deal, it just goes a bit slow. I actually think they have a template that comes with the Ghost overflows, if I'm not mistaken.

Built like a tank! Pay no attention to the boxes of blinds that need to be hung. Priorities here.
I was trying to explain the whole sump/water change station without much success, so we made a run out there and I figured might as well just pick it up ha!Nice! I take it you did a TSC run today.

What are the dimensions on that plastic bin? I'm setting up a 210 and wanna know if I will be able to fit it under my tank.

Is Christmas in August a thing? Hoping to get this stuff wet soon.
Ease let us know how you like those pumps. I'm looking at getting some for my 210.

Hey MHG, hopefully these help. I got 5 12 foot 2x10's and had them sistered and shimmed to the other joists. The wall the tank is going against is right about the cinder pillars and the main support beam of the ground floor, so hopefully I should be ok based on what the builder and contractors said.
