Default Overflow too high
Well thats just freakin lovely. Cut my overflow glass too high. Works but water level to near top. Should have listened to the tank builder at Concepts....but oh no, I know better. DOH!!
Anyone have a solution besides emptying tank & redo overflows walls

You've always got the gap under the bracing PLUS the thickness of the bracing

This is without overflow running, just at top of lip.

I could take my eggcrate guard off, giving me another 1/4 in. perhaps. But then no protection
