overflow

I recently set up a new 83 gallons tank. The overflow is making a lot of noise from the air hole on top and splashing water sound in the sump. I think this overflow is call Herbie. I use a sicce 3.0 as a return pump and the only way I was able to somewhere reduce the noise was to slow the...

Hello All! First post here, but have been reading for a while. I'm struggling with the beananimal overflow plumbing. I had a spare 30gal and 10 gal tank in the basement and decided I wanted to set up a quarantine tank and practice (read:learn about) the beananimal system and fluid dynamics as I...

This is for a 15g frag tank i am planning out. This is what i have planned. i plan to have 4 inches of space in between this panel and the back of the tank so there is plenty of room. The total height of the panel should be about 12" and the height of each baffle will be 11", giving a 1 inch...

I'm in the process of setting up a 180 gallon FOWLR tank and have a question about the dual overflows. I currently have a Marineland 93 gallon rimless RR Cube tank. The 180 that's replacing it has the same stock drains as the cube tank, just 2 of them. I was wondering if anyone has any...

Hi all, I just installed an external fuge onto my 75 seahorse tank and I'm getting a slurping noise. Right now I have a pump putting in water and a single overflow removing water after a single baffle. It seems the water level continues to fluctuate after the baffle and it periodically makes a...

Hi all. I'm keen to set up a gravity fed pvc pipe coast to coast weir overflow for my new 250litre tank. (very similar to the setup in this video: ). I have a couple of questions and any comments will be hugely helpful. 1. Will 25mm (1inch) pipe and bulkheads be sufficient if l have a 1...

Hi, All - I'm upgrading and tossing my Aqueon ProFlex, apparently too much flex as it has begun bowing over the years and swear the stand is damp on colder days, but can't find the leak. Having a hard time deciding which Trigger Sump I'd like to go with, Emerald 26 or Ruby 30. Here is my...

I just setup my first tank with a sump. It was my first time plumbing, etc and I'm super scared that something is going to fail or falter. so what is the right way to use an apex to monitor for leaks, potential overflows etc. I really have no idea where to start other than with the FMM with some...

Hello all! I have a flame angel that had a couple white spots on his tail fin (which are gone now). He also had a couple tears on his fin from either my clown hitting him or my lobster. Probably the clown. Anywho. I treated my tank with some Melafix. Don't have a quarantine tank setup yet...

I have undrilled 75 and 90 gallon tanks. I'm ready to build out the 90 gallon. I didn't want to drill and do a sump, but it's looking more and more like that's what I'm gonna have to do. BUT I'm having nightmares about coming home to a flooded sump with 90 gallons of water flowing thru my...

hey guys I have a problem with my new herbie drain. The water level in my overflow keeps fluctuating. No matter what I do it goes up and down at first I thought it was because my vortech mp40 was pushing to much water but I was wrong. The way it's plumbed is one 1" main full siphion drain and...

All, So I finally gathered the courage to drill my first hole (Hip Hip Hooray). For the most part I think its looks good but would like your opinions as well. The only think that concerns me is in the picture if you look at the edge of the hole looks to be tiny chips. Is this normal or did I...

Currently in the middle of plumbing a 45 gal cube with a small overflow with two 1" drains. However my Proclear Aquatics Freedom 4-in-1 100 refugium only has one 1" input. Should or can I plumb them together so they both drain int to the 1 input? As pictured (Will that have any restrictions on...
