Well I have been trying with no luck to get my tank drilled, just keep running into roadblocks. So I had an idea, but the more I think about it the more I see problems, tell me what you think.
I was going to setup an external pump on the back of the tank to suck water out of the tank and into the sump basically you would only see a small 1" pipe at the top of the water line.
But no I start to think about what If, what if it sucks faster then the return pump, it might run dry and catch fire or at least break. Then I though about hiding a submersible behind some drift wood, then all I could thank about is this thing pumping my tank dry.
Can you think of any way to make this work?
The thought of a overflow box scares me, I don't want an over flow that depends on an aqualifter
