The problem with the nanocube is I'm using the built in 'false wall', which has three chambers .. the center chamber runs at a different height (which has the drain), than the chamber where the water enters..
I'll post pics once it's all done, and I'll resist hi-jacking your thread  |
Oh I see....yeah thats a tricky one then. Do you have an idea of how to deal with it?
The flow rate can and will change with any drain but as long as the drain can handle the maximum flow your pump can put out then your fine. In my case, the pump is so small it will never be a problem. So the only other problem really is things getting into your plumbing like snails and clogging it up. Which of course would flood your display. But with mine, there is no way anything big enough to clog a 1-1/4" pipe can get through that small opening in the overflow, so anything that may get into the overflow should just end up in the sump. If I had a herbie though, it would probably get stuck in the gate valve and slow the drain down making the water level in the display rise. The herbies are just much more sensitive to things getting into the plumbing because of the restriction. I love them though and wish I had the second hole for an emergency drain!
