No worries mate. All the more reason for me to get it out of storage and start a system for my daughter.

...or myself :D

I've got a drilled 40b. No overflow, just a 1-1/2" overflow pipe. I still have it in the dry goods section of the market place if you are interested. No stand though.

Picked up a 40g tank and stand yesterday as well as a CPR HOB fuge, but no light for the fuge...

So update time...

I initially got a 40 long with stand (you might of seen it in the dry goods section since I'm now trying to sell it).

Wanted to go with the 40 breeder and I got one for a good price but no stand. It's not drilled but a buddy showed me how to do an DYI overflow with PVC and no drilling of the tank. The stand will also be a DYI.

With all of that being said I've updated my equipment list.

Internal skimmer
Return pump
Two RW-4s

I have a reef octopus hob 1000 skimmer in the dry good section also. Didn't work out for my tank but it would hang off of a small sump nicely.

Thanks rallos, but I'd prefer an internal skimmer and m not an HOB.
