HELP!!

[Gwenkat]

Thanks for your opinion ThePBM. This was not my design, it was the equipment that came with the tank when my husband bought it. I am just trying to make it work without having to rebuild it all. We have already spent a good bit of money tweaking it. This is the first time I have attempted a sump and am learning as I go.

Can anyone tell me where to find a better overflow design or how to build one? Thanks.

solution: drill your tank. that's all i got.
aside from those bulky pvc overflow setups.

i'm with him on this one. overflows are dangerous, to say the least.
this is an example of an overflow type commonly used with sumps.

Drilling is a serious (and rather permanent) evolution though. Does your tank REQUIRE a sump?
