@DSC reef and @Lovemyreef2015 had green star polyps on their overflow and it looked pretty cool :)

If I thought I could keep them on the overflow, I'd do it in a minute.

This is a tank at one of our LFS's that had GSP get away from them just a little bit.

Spongodes on the back and GSP on the overflow.

Nice! Did you start the GSP in the middle and did they mostly grow up toward the top and not down?
 
Did it ever clog your overflow up?

Yep it sure did. I wish I had some pics of it more "Full" but apparently I didn't add any to PhotoBucket for some strange reason.

I had to take a razor and keep the top portion cleaned off or they would start slowing the flow. Fortunately the way I had the system "tuned" it took very little change in the flow to create a very noticeable sound so it was an early detection situation.
