Yes...mine isn't the same species, but over the years he has become increasingly "friendly". (Not so friendly that I go sticking my hand in there too much) He comes out whenever he sees me near.

Not the best for my solution. You'll need to modify in order to do what I have in mind.

1) Is there room in each overflow to add another drain? Even a 1" might make the entire difference.

It can be done inexpensively if one wants to do it that way. There's also no upper limit to how much can be spent if you want to do it that way.
