I have a SC 120 Gallon Aquarium with the Internal Overflow Box, how do you clean between the ABS Plastic and Glass Passage to the bottom of the tank. I have Narrow Round Brushes, but they only reach down so far. Is there a Source for a Long Narrow Brush?
 
Zip tie a toothbrush or small bottle brush to a pipe. I like the 1/2” CPVC pipes. They’re cheap, easy to cut, and you can get them at the big box hardware stores.
 
The passage is a lot smaller than a half inch, but I will check the see if Lee’s Rigid tubing will fit.
 
I used a bottle brush with a metal core zip tied to an acrylic rod. It got the job done, then after a bit I stopped caring, lol. I was more worried about occasionally cleaning the bottom of the actual overflow itself.
