Question hiding PH's in your overflows?...

this seems like a great idea..."playfair" is doing it...this from his site...

"(2) Maxijet 1200 power heads hidden in the overflows and plumbed towards the front corners of the tank."

seems like a great way to hide ugly powerheads...

but it may increase the amount of water thats going over your overflows...??

wouldnt it just be like having PHs in the tank?...

i have a mag1800 for return pump (4' head) that already pushes my overflows pretty hard...

thanks

brad

That's the link and here is the link to the main site

it looks like an interesting idea I don't think the increase to water going into the overflow would be drastic as long as the output tubes are a ways from the overflow.
