Return line

So now I'm kinda chugging along. So I put the stand together and its a little wobbly but I'll fix that. (later post). I'm all excited and I put the lights (2 x 24in Current Orbit Marine LED) on top and cut them on. At that point I realize that an over the top return is probably not going to work. So the next day I dragged my tank back down to the garage and drill another hole for a return line in the center of the tank just under the overflow box. I calculated it and even if the worst case happens and all the water up to that point back siphons into my sump it could handle it.
