Well..... I have to cut some pipe and glue it so I'd rather only do it once (hence the question).

The Bean Animal instructions are oddly vague on the whole subject and I'm not sure if this is an oversight; the answer is blatently obvious and I'm just an idiot (could be !) or it just doesn't matter (I have a tough time buying into that one)

So from that pic, I take it that the main is WELL below (2"+) the overflow; the secondary is pretty much AT the overflow level and the emergency is up high but below the rim.

Yeah ?
