Maybe this question was better off here in this forum:
Can anyone please explain to me how the linear overflow size calculator here on RC is designed to work? Does it assume teeth are cut into the linear length, and if so, what sort of spacings, etc
For instance, I put in 1200gph as the flow rate and it recommends a minimum linear overflow size of 18". But I dont know how to relate this the overall overflow length because the overflow on my tank will come with teeth that are 5/8 inch apart on center and with 1/4 inch void spaces in between.
