by Kieth Ledbetter (kwl1673 DFWMAS) - Building on last month’s topic of planning an in-wall tank, I want to expand on concerns with planning a large tank. Many, if not most large tanks are in-wall, so all the last month’s suggestions apply here as well. A big tank, however, has several “special” concerns in addition to the in-wall issues. Big is an obviously relative term that I’m going to leave undefined. I’ve set up two large tanks myself within the past year ...

by Jeremy Wolff (Sy5tem_0verload) - Everyone who has a marine tank knows that it requires at least a minimal amount of planning. Thorough planning can prevent loss of time and money due to changing equipment, buying new/better equipment, redoing plumbing, making numerous trips to the hardware store (which inevitably happens regardless of how much planning we’ve all done :D), etc.
