Two Wavebox Questions
Hey there Roger,
1. Just picked up a new tank, eurobraced. So, the question is, if the wavebox is mounted to the internal side of the tank, how much clearance is needed above the box and below the bracing. 2. The tank is 36" front to back. Will I need the second box, or will one do the job. Thanks! |

What are the overall tank dimensions, the wavebox needs to have the top 3/4" above the waterline but depending on tank length you may need room for a wave that is bigger than that.

You could try using one but the wave will be shorter that it would be on a narrow, long tank of equal volume. I would expect a maximum wave height of 1" and the wavebox should be at least 12" in from one of the sides given the width of the tank.
