Octo proof overflow/U Tube

I tried this as well and it has negative effects.

1. the lowert the box the more flow you can get out of your pump, hence more circulation.

2. no matter how high, It still left me with 1/2' gap!

It make work that way on other tank designs, but not mine. Maybe BOe's idea will work for you though :biggrin2:
 
ok here is the overflow I had built into my tank .
Now when the Bio is a baby I will lay needle point backing over top of the egg crate ( and remove it when he/she has gotten larger).
Now again this is all in theory (I need to build my stand still , cycle my tank for at least four months ).
But I thought I would post it for future ideas for people - I think it should work pretty good.
PS. my over flow is based on this design ( just done internal )

- so it has 0 teeth.
Here are the pics
