+1 : If building a proper overflow is possible, that is what you should do. With the hang on overflows, I think there are ways to restart the siphon if the power fails, but I wouldn't gamble my tank on it working every time. If you take short cuts setting up the tank, you will be limited by them down the road. Be prepared for some hard work. Start with designing a proper overflow.
