Prodigy overflow

[BeachBumTX]

Ok....after a long period of not messing with my tank build, been working on the sump and got the tank drilled. I bought a prodigy overflow a while back. Got it assemble. However the weir plate on it falls out easily. Does anyone that bought/used the prodigy. Overflow experienced the same thing? How did y'all fix it? Am I going to have to glue it into place?

I contacted them and they fixed it I think

Same thing was happening to me but once there was water in the tank all was good. I actually have to use some for to pull it off

What was the solution?

I guess the answer is just hydrostatic pressure holds it in place. I got one now and it seems to work.

Note also that it’s not water-tight so when pumps are off, it will (very) slowly drain down to the equivalent level of removing the weir. Just something to be aware of when checking max water levels in sump etc.
