looking for ideas for a floodsafe overflow on a 10g that i want to add to a system as a frag tank. i think something like an eshoppes or fijicube overflow would be super overkill (unless any of u have one laying around for sale). ive seen 90° pvc fitting pointed up through a bulkhead but not sure how easy it could get clogged like if a snail went in and blocked all flow.

You can get 3D printer weirs and just use elbows off bulkheads inside one of those!

never used one but i suppose it could work. it would stop any snails big enough to go down and the drain could go full siphon if the tank gets too full. its common sense! im just to slow haha thanks
