I am getting ready to convert my IM lagoon 25 from an AIO set up to a sump configuration. This tank is going to sit in my living room on the main floor of my home and I am going to plumb it into a large sump located in my basement.
I am trying to decide if a Bean Animal is necessary. I really like the extra safety of having three pipes with the bean animal design but this also means 4 pipes going through the wall if you include my return line. Also I am going to have to drill 4 holes in the glass vs 3.
Any way, what is everybody's experience with these two types of overflows, what do most people use? Any big horror stories with the herbie style?
