Brianemone Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 Hey Just planning the acrylic overflow. im wanting to have the water level fairly high in the tank but not overflow it. does anyone know a trick for working out the space needed for over flow combs? ie how high they should be and how far apart each tooth should be.

Brianemone Posted October 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 yeah i figured id go with something like yours as you seem happy with it. what height di you do yours at? and how much linear overflow is there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimera Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 at about 4,000lph return, water level sits just short of an inch up the overflow comb. so i'd opt for at least 1.5" height Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
