AquaFuge External Hang-On Refugium

[Ol' Jedi]

Is anyone using the large size? I have a 90-gallon tank with a 12" wide
glass center brace. There is only 17" of space on either side of the brace,
and the refugium wont fit in that. My question is whether it can straddle
the brace, with outlet and inlet on opposite sides of the brace. It would
need 12" between the pipes minimum. Also, with the brace there, the hanging
bracket cannot reach over the tank trim too far. The brace would prevent it
from hanging over much below the actual trim. Has anyone used this in a
similar situation? Will it hang on the trim/or can I "notch" it so that it
will work? Thanks in advance.....

Sounds like an Oceanic tank. That's one thing that I
don't like about Oceanic, though now that All-Glass
ownes Oceanic, they are slowly changing over to
All-Glass style.

Those braces can hold a fare amount of weight, so
you could probably do it just fine, though I'm not
familiar with that filter, and how heavy it is full
of water.
