livingart Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 you can buy overflow combs from HFF i make mine from old under gravel filter plates putting a line between your images will stop them spreading across the page trav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David R Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Mark I don't think he's using the overflow, he wants to be able to fill the tank up higher than the top of the tank. Go to Placemakers or bunnings and buy some Sellys Silicone (read the packet, one of them says "aquarium safe"), go see your local glazier and get a piece of glass cut to the right size, lower the water level sufficiently, silicone the piece of glass in place, leave it to dry, then fill and test. Oh, and get a time machine so you can go back in time and do it before you filled the tank up... :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Install an overflow comb and USE the overflow. Put your cannister filters intakes in it if you don't want to connect them to the bottom of the overflow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
