 Where can I get an overflow box so I can add a sump? Just wondering if there are any good sites that sell over flow boxes so i can add a sump to me already running tank? The tank is 92 gallons. Thanks  |

| Re: Where can I get an overflow box so I can add a sump? If you or someone you know have worked with pvc you can make your own overflow for about 1/3 the cost. I made one for my tank. Its been running for two and a half weeks now with no problems. There are a few sites where you can lookup other DIY o'flows people have used. I'll try to find the sites and post back later.
