The siphon is no concer to me i have a check valve on the line, what was my interest was the fact that putting a screen on top of a rimless tank would interfear with a lockline going into the water, so that why i was interested in the input. i do know the consequence of splashing, noises and salt creep. I'm interested in people's dealing with those paricular problem and how they handle them. You can't buy experience. Thank you all for your input. Still not sure what route i'll choose yet.
