Clownfish setup

So my wife really really likes clownfish.
As in we have 3.5 pairs *sigh*

I decided to get a 90x45x45 tank made up for them all.

It's just a basic setup with a basic sump and basic plumbing but it will do for now :-)

Going to browse the classifieds for a used skimmer and see how we go.

She wants to breed but will see how that goes also.

That'll be fun.

Why not drill the tank?
I'd def do it before you add fish and such.

Forgot to say in the post the guy who built the tank used safety glass.. and we all know what happens if you try to drill safety glass :-(

Looking back now maybe I should have not taken the tank, but it was built well and figured it could make a good tank for something else later.

I said basic because it's just PVC but I had used overflows like this in another project years ago and it ran trouble free for over a year.

Hey if aesthetics is not an issue, then it's smart to use what you know works.
