You said yours is 48x26x22
A 120 could be 48x24x25 My guess is it has to be slightly over 100 gallon Last edited by SFish; 02/16/2017 at 08:17 PM. |

Drilled the hole to low on the trash can and it leaks so I'm going to get rid of that and use the two drums instead.

After mess around with the trash can a bit more I think I'm just going to put a bulkhead on it. Going to save up for a panworld pump. I tested all the rest of the uniseals and no leaks. The trash can is the only thing that gave me trouble was the trash can.

Dude that's rough, I know it sounds upid but try putting some silicone between the uniseal,, either between the rubber of the uniseal and the trash can , or the uniseal and the pvc pipe ,, obviously make sure it's dry and make sure to give it ample time to cure and use ge1 silicone or something that you trust in your water !

Love what you are doing! I cannot wait to see the complete set up with lights and everything in. I am setting up a 75 g tank and just got so inspired.

All I really need is to make some lids for the storage containers and a pump. Then it's on to the next thing after wet testing. Most likely I'll work on the overflow box.
