HOF overflow box

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Ok... I already know how the build the PVC overflow but I have to questions.

IMPORTANT 1: how should i put to gather the PVC. Would the Primer and glue kill my fish or is there a treatment I should do in order to make it safe for my fish.

2: Do i need to add anything to the top of the T where the air would be. or could I just leave it as just a open hole

Use any primer/cement that says "for potable water",

im guessing your talking about the "air intake" just a pipe that goes up past the top loop

it will say how long the cure time is on the can of cement, probably 2 hours. id also give it a good rinsing. If your going to paint the pvc with krylon fusion, make sure you clean it properly before spraying it
