Hello all,
its me again with the basics. this time about tanks. I dont have any clue about overflow type aquariums. however, looking at overflow type aquariums at my local fish shop, i am interested in having one for myself. But I would like to understand how it works & what is there within. Are there any threads in this site or any books that you would recommend reading to understand overflow type aquariums ?? Thanks for your help as always.. Cheers / Sashi |

Re: Understanding Overflow Type Aquarium
Here's a link to a thread I started on Reef Central:
Reef Central Online Community - Glass Overflow Question It's a glass overflow on a 75 gal tank. Regardless of your tank size the principal is still the same. There's quite a bit of info there with links to some important aspects with regards to drilled tanks. Are you interested in drilling a tank or using a siphon overflow? If you're a bit foggy at all with regards to the difference ... or even the performance between the two just ask. |
