I saw this and really like the concept. Thinking about ordering one for my new cube. Any feedback?

That looks pretty cool but I wonder how easily it might clog and lead to the tank overflowing.

Personally I don't see how it could be any worse than any hang on back or built in over flow. Where do you think it will clog quickly?

I agree. I think it's a cool idea!

This has a covered top that could clog, most of the hang on the back/built-in-overflows are open on the top so water can still spill over. Anything with a screen/grate can clog and I wouldn't want to take a chance. I think its a cool idea but I wouldn't use it.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
