Overflow box

pumbaafoot · 05-27-2006, 08:56 PM

I need some good ideas for an overflow box. I am looking for the 200 to 500 gph rate. Any pics and/or drawings with suggestions. I would rather build my own but if any one has had great success with any paticular model, let me know.

Check this website out: www.wetdryfilter.com

I do not know if you are looking for an internal or external overflow, but I hope this helps.

I would not do a HOB overflow, I would recommend contacting Bob at www.reefmania.net He built my current aquariums.

ReefIndex.com has some good info on DIY overflow boxes. There's a three part article on sumps that was real good.
