20oz soda bottle cut top off flip it over put it back in the bottle like a funnel put on a couple drops of superglue to make it stay put some bait in and sink it in the tank
ok i think i get it know lol. have evough room in both tank and sump to accomidate the flow but not so much that it will over flow the tank or aquarium. it was something i thought if the power went out and the siphon stoped and you didnt overflow the sump when the power came back on it would...
ok so with that these o/f boxes are makeing more sence so now if it doesnt overflow the sump when the power goes out will it overflow the tank,does the sifon stop?
thank you that does make alot of sense.so what i have is a 55 gallon walmart tank that is sw it has live rock and live sand only two big peices of rock but i have a blue spot ray and she has to have a bit of room to bury im also running a fluval fx5 and a seaclone 150.so what i wanna do is...
so a built in over flow is the way to go?from what i understand of them the return pump from the sump makes it work but shouldnt flood the tank as long as the pumps gph is lower than the o/f? ive ive got a couple extra tanks and would like to make a sump and o/f im just trying to get some better...
can a hang on over flow box flood a sump if the pump fails to return water to the tank like with a power outage?and whats the difference between a the hang on deal an having a tank with an overflow built in? thanks ryan
