I’ve cut out the foam underlay to allow the plumbing of the weir to poke through.

How did I get it in there? well, to get it out, I slide it to the left a little, and rotate it clockwise 90 degrees, then i can slide it out the front. It only ‘just’ fits (by cm’s). anything longer and I wouldn’t be able to rotate it 90 degrees to fit it in.

Hopefully the hole is in the right spot. All I need now is some bodies to give me a hand to lift the tank off the stand so that I can slide the foam underneath it. Without it, I’m reluctant to put any extra weight in or on the tank.

I also have a photo of the newly positioned sump, and where it will end up sitting:

There are no divisions in this yet as I am still to determine where the plumbing is all going. I plan to place the skimmer to the left of the sump (external).

I’ve also got 2 x 150w heaters, but after doing some calculations I think they are a little on the small side, considering I have about 600L to heat up.

That’s all for now.
