thats not a siphon- its an overflow box.

and its a CPR... horrible thing. more failure prone than any other overflow box out there.

a "siphon" is just a tube or pipe thats inverted to keep water levels the same on both side. a siphon tube by itself wont work for a sump.

Oh..take note that in the ad, it says "Can be hard plumbed with standard PVC pipe"...does not mention ABS.. hmmmm? but thats another dead discussion.


well he can use that to go to the sump... that was just an example. Be carefull what you say. CPR can sue you. That IS slander.

Thank you very much for your help slipknottin & JamisonBWolsh.
So I guess The Sump is the best chose for my application?

Well I have you both here so eager to help me out.
Would a 50gal sump still be a very decently sized sump for my 130?
Or should I keep my mind set on the 72
 
CPR cant sue anybody. there are numerous cases of them failing.

If they do want to sue someone they should spend the money on product development. Maybe theyll make a product that actually works right. SOS overflows are the same thing... recently ive heard of quite a few failures.
 
use the 50... no sense in spending the additional cash on a tank you wont even see.
 
you should stop that slander. Even though your only 18, they can still sue you easily.

No more debating is fine. I was just trying to save you a hundrend bucks..
 
do you know the definition of slander?

I never commited slander. I stated truth, and personal experiences of many people.
 
Oh.. yea.. 50 gallons are ALOT less then 72 gallon tanks. Prices tend to go up DRAMATICally for tanks over 60 gallons (over in cali anyway). Here a 60 gallon glass tank goes for 50.00 (including light and cover).
 
samething about that guy being sued by petswarehouse. Review that case and you will see what you just typed in is the same thing that guy did. But i think your safe. they dont read these forums...maybe :eek:
