Just Exactly How Do I Plumb My Fx5 To My Acrylic Tank?

[gpaaib]

Hi Everyone!

After attempting to set up my tank today (a 90g Clear-For-Life Acrylic) I realized that the set up details that came with the Fluval FX5 are pretty much for a glass tank. Below is a photo of the top of my tank. Any suggestions on how I should plumb it up?

Thanks so much for any help, diagrams, etc..

why not put the hoses where the larger rectangle cutouts are? Those are about a half inch or slighty more from the very edge. Thats about the same as my glass aquarium. You have to shimmy the holders over the lip of the tank untill the snap into place.

mmmmm if you have trouble putting the hoses in i think you will have other problems

the great thing about acrylic over a glass tank is you can drill holes were ever you want
