I know nothing about using a canister in lieu of a water pump, do sadly cant help there
i had a 75 gal tank running a small sunsun filter, when the turtle was small it did the job but a year later and it was time to change... I found a fx6 and it has been awesome for the past while... Now that I have upgraded to the 125g and have a little more undertank room looking to add the sump to act as a prefilter for the fx6... I wish the "new" tank was drilled but it isn't... I have seen a few diy pvc overflows and looking to try something like that and as you see the tank is not full so a standard hang on back overflow will not work...

Also part of the system will be an overflow of some sort, has anyone had good experience with the diy pvc ones? and as you can see my water level is quite low are there any other options to get the water out of the tank without using a pump?
