LeeMar Aquariums

I've tried searching without much success but does anyone have any pics of LeeMar tanks with an external overflow?

I don't believe they will make them....

According to my retailer they're the only one who will make them.

 

[Ian]

interesting, last I heard they won't do it....

They did a horizontal internal for me. Not sure about external. I think a local had one done...memory fails me now...I'll have to find out.

Edit: Nope... the one I was thinking of was also internal...

I believe they will do external. I could not go that way due to space limitations.

Beautiful, did you go with the black or clear silicon? Can't decide...

Hands down, black.

I did black on my tank.

Interesting question - one that I would like to know the answer to as well. Most of my searches came up w/ people saying 'I wanted an external overflow, but that ruled out LeeMar'. (Anecdotal at best, of course!)

Found this google cached search of someone saying:

Pismo Beach CA
...glass, 225 gallon leemar aquarium (60" x 36" x 24"). euro-style, black silicone, external overflow box

Then I found this post saying yes: Removing Glass Perimeter Brace to make Rimless tank? - Reef Central Online Community

And this post saying no: WMAS Message Board - Starting again- Corey's new tank blog - Page 1

So... My official answer is: maybe?

LeeMar absolutely does offer an external overflow, I've got a quote from them already. Just looking for pictures. If you need any info on who you can order through PM me and I can give you the info for my guy.

That's great news in my book - thx!

That's odd. I asked them for an external overflow for my next tank and was told they don't do that.

Peter, I'm curious as to how you plumbed that overflow, do you have pics? Asking because my next tank will have an internal yet horizontal overflow like yours..but trying to figure out how to plumb it so that it's very silent, since it will be in my living room. Thanks for any pics or info you can provide.

Do you guys like the coast to coast overflow option?
