    Ace isn't doing work anymore, due to BOD/President nominations... fs40reef, check out glass-holes.com -- drilling is really quite simple.. a good electric drill with a clutch, a water hose, a hole saw, and some patience are all you really need -- and they sell complete sets with the the overflow wier assembly as well. Their videos are informative (and goofy!) and will show you how little effort is really needed..

    The $120 you'd spend on holes being drilled, would likely be cut by 1/3 or more..

    The main pump should not be for current in the tank, Corruption and Ace's reasons are on the money.

    What is the goal of adding more sand?

    How deep is the current sand bed?

    The current sand bed is about 2.5" - 3". Think that may be enough? I'm not really going for a DSB but want to make sure enough is in there. I did pick up a MAG 12 and have increased flow in the tank about 500gph to 800 or so. Along with the two Koralia 4's flow looks great.
