DIY Overflow

I just built a wet/dry & sump for my 55g. Any I deas on how to build the overflow boxes. I am using PVC for the plumming.

I think you will be better off buying one. The design is a bit involved...too tedious and not worth it. They aren't that expensive. I bought mine at Marine Depot, I think I paid 89 bucks or something but the clear ones are a bit cheaper. I don't know if SWF carry overflow boxes though.

They really aren't that complicated. I did the plimbung for about $2. I just need boxes. I may just start with $3 worth of tupperware. Nothing like an overflow for $5!!!!

Well...if you say so. Let us know if it works.

Mine looks a lot like yours. What did you use for the two overflow boxes?
