cromag27 Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Fits perfect with standard black trim. Link to comment
Horerczy Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Looks good. Lot shorter than my ac50 pico aquariums overflow box from the looks of it. Link to comment
cromag27 Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Yeah I'm not sure if that will be a good or bad thing. I wanted it as small as possible. I won't know until I can test it in water. also going to try making the next version with 1/8" acrylic. Link to comment
shaner014 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Id prefer shorter and wider, didn't much like the pico design. Link to comment
Horerczy Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I think a little shorter isn't bad. The pico one is needlessly large IMO. But it accommodates the whole of the lift tube, needlessly. Worst case maybe some extra slots on the bottom so there is top and bottom draw of water. Just in case someone forgets to top off. I think the smaller back acrylic piece will help a lot. On my pico there's definitely a smaller piece of abs on the back. Link to comment

cromag27 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 Got some thinner acrylic that I'll be using for my next prototype on Friday. Link to comment
cromag27 Posted January 17, 2016 Author Share Posted January 17, 2016 Me a new AC70 with 1/8" acrylic. fits tanks with trim and rimless. there's enough room to slide the overflow forward and backward a little as well. magnet order got delayed until mid next week. Link to comment
shaner014 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Any progress on a 110 box? Just put sand in and really need something soon. Link to comment
cromag27 Posted January 17, 2016 Author Share Posted January 17, 2016 Won't be that hard now that I have a process for the AC70. the next step is nailing down the most cost effective magnet. V 2.0 in the foreground. Link to comment
NeoClown Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Any chance for an AC20 version? Link to comment

SushiYum Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 put me down for an ac70 Link to comment
texanreefer Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I'd be interested in one for either an AC50 or AC70 once I decide which filter i'm going with, just as long as its not too thick for the magnet to hold my Smart ATO micro. The magnet would have to go on the outside of the tank so through the glass and back of the skimmer. i think it should work though. Link to comment
