Thinking about drilling my tank to add an external overflow box. I’ve seen allot of bad reviews online. Which product have you had success with? Or failure. Please let me know so I can figure out how to move forward.

I will check it out. I really like the custom aquariums stealth box. Any feedback on this one?
Good to know.I have one. I do not like the screen they use, it clogs easily and thus raises the tank water level. I removed it so Its just a pipe sticking into tank. Doesnt look too bad.
I will be getting another custom aquariums tank in the future because they are awesome tanks, but I will not be using their overflows anymore.
I have the 36" MM on my big tank ..... works really well. Only issue is availability. Using the eschops (sp?) M on my QT tank. Would not recommend it on a display. Although I have not personally used one, the fiji cube lopro overflows look good.Is anyone using the modular marine overflow box?
Agreed. I run these on every tank.The eclispse overflows are awesome.
I have used the Eclipse, Fiji Cube, and EMS overflows. Of the 3, I highly recommend the EMS (Exotic Marine Systems) overflow. It is the easiest to tune, quietest, and best made, IMO. Only issue, is having to wait a bit, since they are built on a much smaller scale.
I would NOT recommend the Eclipse. They work, but are by far the loudest of them. The external box is too low, making it nearly impossible to get it silent unless using EXTREMELY low flow. The Fiji Cube does not have this problem as the external box sits much higher.
But, if there are other options that are easier to tune, silent (without difficulty), and roughly the same cost, why get one that is "nearly" impossible to get quiet? IMO, I would save myself the trouble and get one that just works!Nearly is the key word. Takes some work but mine is dead silent.
Same.Nearly is the key word. Takes some work but mine is dead silent.
