Ok so here's my dilemma, and it may be nothing but want some opinions anyway.
I have a 140 gallon tank that is 48"x 24"x 27.75" the problem I have is the overflow only goes up 22" basically turning the tank into a 110 gallon tank. I haven't been able to find any overflows that tall and I really don't want to see the water line. So is it going to be easier to build an overflow with acrylic or am I going to have to drop the hood that I'm building. Then I am also wondering about the size of tank I should use as my sump/refug I will have 42" length and 21.5" from front to back and 26" of height under the tank inside the stand. Thanks for any info, look forward to hearing from the community.
