Hey everyone,
New to site and looking for your expertise. I bought a 60 gallon acrylic (60x14x17). I love the footprint and really want to make this tank work if at all possible. In the pictures below you will see I cut out the corner to put in my own overflow box. I'm going to be setting this up as an AIO. After I cut the corner out, I had a moment of "what have I done?" I immediately realized I probably screwed the integrity of the strength of the aquarium. So what I've done so far and with some help from a fellow reefer, I used Weld-on 4 and 16 to glue the overflow box in and I've also glued another acrylic corner piece to hopefully bring the strength back. What would you guys do? Is this a crapshoot? Am I asking for 60 gallons of water on my floor? Looking for honest feedback! Thanks everyone.
