Hey everyone,
I’m super excited to be upgrading from my current 50-gallon tank to a new custom project (aiming for a 200+ gallon system).
The new display tank measures 180x70x50h cm (approx. 71" x 27.5" x 19.5"). I went with the 50cm height because I love the lagoon look and easy access for...
Hi all, I am returning to the hobby after six long years and want to build a small size tank (600x450mm / 24''x18''). I came up with these two solutions for the overflow box. Do you see any flaws in them and which of the two would be better? The only thing I am seeing now, is that solution #2...
I am looking to convert an 120 gallon fresh water tank to a saltwater tank. I was looking for a HOB overflow as I want to avoid drilling into the tank. It is also a rimmed tank. Any recommendations?
I just set up a cs90 overflow box with a vectra s2. I just ordered the pump to help keep the air from the overflow, but it won’t maintain the level in the back chamber. I’ve tried adjusting the pump but it doesn’t really do anything.

Got an Eclipse l and after much time, I finally got it plumbed to the best of my ability in the bean animal style. However, I for some reason watched the ONE YouTube video where the person cemented their inner overflow in, meaning I can’t pull out any of the elbows because they are cemented into...
After many hours of research I have decided to move forward with drilling my new 75 gallon (48x18x21) marineland tank and install an Eshopps Eclipes S overflow box. Mainly due to the peace of mind in not potentially losing siphon and flooding our newly renovated basement.
I was also gifted a...
Hello, I’m planning on adding a trigger systems crystal sump 30” to my 60 gallon breeder using hard plumbing. I already have everything planned out other than the equipment that will go in my sump.
I’m looking to get an eshopps hob overflow box, but I’m not sure which model. I’m also looking...
I've been doing a little research into trying to add a sump to my fluval flex. I'm looking at the fiji 12 as it would fit just right under my stand. I was looking at the CS50 HOB overflow as a way to get the water down to the sump as it's not drilled and I feel like getting it drilled would be...

SO i just made a post about a 300GPH overflow and if it was enough now I want to know if a 1200GPH is enough for a 80 gallon system. I am just worried it will be too much turn over but I have the opportunity to get a very good deal on a 1200GPH

1800gph Modular Marine bean animal overflow box in good condition. Link to specs from website below. I would recommend replacing the gaskets since they're about 5yrs old and getting a little brittle. There's also 1.5" pvc glued into the three drain bulkheads but it's trimmed such that you can...
Setting up a small flat next to my display to house my frags. The tank has an overflow. Is it necessary to include a durso style overflow drain? Or since there is no risk of the tank draining to the bulkhead level is anything needed at the bulkhead? Pictures included.

For anyone that uses the X aqua overflow kit - what return pump do y'all use? I have the sicce syncra 3.0, and I have to cover up the overflow in order to keep the water level in the tank, or it will just drain to the bottom of the overflow pipe.
I'm a newb. The long story is posted here: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/a-beginners-story-dilemma-and-question-cry-for-help-bought-a-beautiful-260g-that-was-full-now-has-leak-after-professional-move-what-do-i-do.1005503/

(Drainage in this case being the pipes going from overflow to sump. Also, sorry if this is in the wrong forum lol.)
I don't plan on making one because I don't have the money, and I'm not making a sump + refugium for a 10 gallon aquarium, at least not right now. Maybe in the future, when I'm...
