![]() Can anyone offer a link or diagram of an external overflow design. I'm trying to wrap my head around how to build an external overflow that would alow me to raise or lower the water level in the tank. I don't want an ugly box inside of the tank, I'd much rather have something outside that isn't an eye sore.
My initial thoughts were to build a box with another bulk head on the bottom. That way I could build a sliding stand pipe to raise and lower the water level. Input anyone?

![]() Danny you want to raise the water level in the over flow or the tank.. why would you want to raise the water level in the tank. I dont think that a external over flow will allow you to raise the water level in the tank ..
