    Great work! Can't wait to see it with some corals and/or inverts/fish.

    Nice job, that's the same vase I used for my 5g pico/nano. I was also going down the same path of drilling the bottom, but when I put the PVC in the tank, with the curved glass there was too much magnification so I decided to drill the back of the glass and hide the plumbing, but same idea, return inside overflow. Nice job on the build, good to see someone doing something similar so we could compare and share ideas. What do you plan to add for livestock?

    Hmm... maybe after i get more experience in the SW hobby i might just go for a 5 gallon; seems like fun and a pretty good challenge to maintain
