helal olsun kardes.

i also tried many versions of this overflow but you always need to care for it.. a little air can accumulate and you don't see it until it's too late. In the end i drilled the tank and never looked back: it's much easier than it seems.

ReefAmorous - 7 years ago

drilling the tank is the best option always, I agree with you
this is the best workaround when you cant drill the tank

Destiana Eka - 7 years ago

great job.
I really like how simple that plumbing is!

I have a problem getting my overflow to start and design as yours, a smaller Diameter pipe sucking downward inside a bigger pipe but If I get it to start the flow is so weak

Enrique Goitia - 7 years ago

ReefAmorous well I got the overflow running but it ain't so strong since I'm just using 25mm pvc so I think I have to jump up to maybe 2 1/2 inch to compensate my eheim 3000l/h pump variable to 1800l/h max height of 2.7m but it has to do 1.10m of height to the main tank and through 2 elbows which I heard affects the head height

ReefAmorous - 7 years ago

+Enrique Goitia sorry for being late in your reply.
How much the height of you tank? And how much the diameters of both? The pipe itself and the bigger one?

ReefAmorous - 7 years ago

+Enrique Goitia how much the tank height? How much the diameter of the pipe?

What is the size of the return pump? I want to know how many GPH I should have returning on my 125gal with a 50gallon sump.

ReefAmorous - 7 years ago

The normal formula is Pump size = Tank size * 10, so if you have total 150 gallons, so you need return pump with size 1500GPH

I really like the fact that u do things so simpme an neat.i have a question thou i have a european brace on my tank an my tank has a drilled hole in it for the drain pipe.how would i use this method of overflow on my tank.i know it may seem silly but im new to the hobbie

ReefAmorous - 7 years ago

+DAWOOD PARKER if your tank has hole already no need to use this method, this method for tanks without holes, it's work around, I hope my answer is clear. Thanks for watching and thanks for your nice comment :)

Franco Almeida Baterista - 7 years ago

Amazing job!, but what happen without electrical power in the house no people in the house

ReefAmorous - 7 years ago

+Franco Almeida Baterista if you are taking about the overflow it will stop working and will work itself again once the power comeback again, this is the trick in this design.

ReefAmorous - 7 years ago

+Franco Almeida Baterista for sure will be fail! In case of vacation should have different setup such battery supply and wifi controller
