With a 96x25" viewing window. I went with that size simply because I'm getting the glass for free.
Using a 37x37x20" FGT as a sump. I'll to get 10,000gph (10x turnover)

Any questions, concerns post em up!

I'm going with pond liner, I don't know how to fiber glass and all that crap. With pond liner there's only 1 spot to worry bout leaks and that's the viewing window area.
