I have a Top Fin Calm 0.5 gallon cube, probably about 6", that I'd like to somehow connect to my main tank. Does anybody have any ideas that don't involve drilling? I have a fluval sea Marine that I use to light it. It's just so small that I've had a hard time cramming all the equipment I need in it and having room for everything else.
 
Why don’t you want to drill it
 
Partly because I've never done it before. Secondly, how would I even do it on something that small?
 
Bump, after a little research I've found the XAqua INOUT. It seems like it should fit, I measured the tank and it's actually a 5.5" cube. I would have to drill two small holes. I would just need to install a shelf for the tank above my sump for the overflow, correct? And what type of GPH for the return pump? 25, 50? It's only about half a gallon total volume. Do they make pumps that small?
