overflow

A few days ago I started hearing a whistling coming from the pipe in my corner overflow that goes to the sump. There is a small hole in the top and if I cover it with my finger, the noise stops and the water level in the overflow lowers quickly but stops after about 5 seconds. I am not sure...

I bought a ReefSavvy 21" ghost overflow that flows 2400 gph for a new aquarium build I'm doing. Of course, my plans changed. It's brand new and was never installed. ReefSavvy doesn't accept returns, so my loss your gain. To get all the info on the overflow, Google: "reef savvy ghost overflow...

We're about to start plumbing the sump to the tank. Build thread here. The tank is a peninsula with dual synergy reef 16" overflows. To keep things neat, I wanted to terminate the return on the same end as the overflow. Is that a problem? Will the overflows just suck in everything coming out...
