lifereef is the only way i would ever go for HOB overflow

I've been using a dual lifereef for ~4 years and never lost siphon. I'm breaking down my tank and will be selling if you're interested.

Don't try the CPR overflows. While some people have luck with them, I had more than a few tank overflows due to the unit losing siphon, even with the aqualifter pump. Never had a single issue with the Lifereef.

I just ordered a life reef after trouble with the dreaded cpr. The cpr ran great for the first few weeks but has since started to lose siphon here and there.

Life reef all the way

I made mine out of PVC for about 5 buck.... the way I figure it, is
if I'm going to spend over $100 for something I really don't what
I can pay someone to drill a hole or two.

How did you build one for $5.00 using pvc? Trying to connect my 29 gal tank to my 20 gal long sump for cheap but efficient.

Just DON"T use CPR! I am running drilled now

Lifereef, amiracle, Or any with a u-tube. Just don't get sucked into a cpr or anything needing another pump to keep it going...

[Zestay]

drill it..

[siwelk]

it never fails...anytime someone asks about overflows someone has to suggest drilling
