Hi
I would like some assistance in adding a corner overflow to my exisiting 65g (48x18x18) drilled tank. Where can I buy one, or how do I find the materials to make.
The existing straight "stand-pipe" works, but it is kinda ugly and I don't think the 2.5 inch "crown" is large enough to allow for approx. 800 g/hr flow through the sump.
In reading related threads DIY acrylic is difficult to keep straight and to get it to bond to the glass. I was going to build out of glass, but I am having a hard time finding opaque glass, and I really don't want this thing to be see-thru.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
This is what it looks like now.
