I have a 125 gallon that I'd love to switch to a sump (instead of a canister). However, I keep my water level about 6 inches lower than the top of the tank (I have mudskippers and they need some room above water).
Is there a ready made HOB overflow that is big enough (or can be set up for) a water level 6 inches below the top? I have surfed the web and not found (or recognized) what I'm looking for.
Thanks,
kevin
Side notes:
Obviousy, my tank is not drilled and quite frankly, I'm too much of a coward to drill my 125 (especially since it's already set up and I don't want to move everything for the time drilling and plumbing would take)
Since I have ~100 gallons in my 125, I assume that's a decent safety margin for risks of overflow if I do something wrong (clogged overflow). I've considered a switch in the sump so if water level drops too low the return pump would stop (and I'd want a siphon break, etc)
