Looking at the prices of the higher gph cpr overflows im wondering if upgrade time for the tank with panes im able to drill might be the cheaper and better way to go in the long run...

if you have a tank thats already running and your already planning an upgrade then i would save that money you would use on an overflow and put it towards your upgrade......buy only what you need and can use for a long time



a temporary tank while you drill can easily be just a large bin hasnt got to be pretty just large enough and safe enough for your livestock.......hang a little sign sayng construction in progress lol but i would just save for your upgrade cheers
