![]() The thing is even if it looks the same there are some details that might have been in the one he built that makes it work the way it does. Even if he constructs another one similar to the design he might miss that very intricate detail that makes it work or even if it does do what he says.
I don't know if that makes sense but I do think that's why he wants to get what he built and not another one following the blue print. |

![]() Wow, people build these things all the time, I built one and it works great.
http://forums.saltwaterfish.com/vb/s...d.php?t=288154 It works like the traps on a sink (and like the commercial CPR overflows). I built mine for about 20 bucks, the key is that you need to be able to remove the air from the very top point of the overflow. Once this is done (and water seals each of the bottom curves) when the water level rises on the side inside the tank it will also rise on the side outside the tank. You don't even need that much of a depth for it to work, though longer runs outside the tank seem to increase velocities in my experience... I've seen this design called a 'velocity loop' before, try Googling that ![]() |

![]() I wish I had found this a couple of days ago and could have helped you out. I have built a few of these and have one currently setup on my 65G in the basement. It's been running for about 4 months now without failure. I wish the video was still up so that I could see how yours was running.
