I currently have a 75 gallons thats been up and running since jan.

Its not drilled. But i want to add a sump now.

I was looking at a cpr hob overflow.

Is that the best way without drilling?

Its only a fowlr tank currently until its gets more mature. But i want to get rid of the algae and have a place for all my heaters and ato stuff as well.

Help?
 
If you plan on keeping that tank for awhile I would find a way to drill it but of course that's a pita since it has livestock. I don't know much about external overflows but I've heard lifereef overflows to be good
 
That lifereef looks nice. Wonder if 600 gph is enough for a 75 gallon?
 
I bought the Lifereef when I first got an overflow box. It's not really that much safer than any of the other overflow boxes and it's more expensive. My failed just as much as a the other boxes i used.

Get one of the CPR boxes and one of the aqualifter pumps that helps restart the siphon.

I do have it on a ups as well as a whole home generator so hopefully it will be ok.

Which cpr did u like best?
