Hi, I have had my overflow system up and running for about 2 years now, but whenever I feed my fish guppies they always end up in my sump tank. The overflow pipe I have right now is 1" and has gutter guard around it to keep all floating plants and fish out, but the guppies can fit inside the spaces of the gutterguard. Is there anything someone could suggest me using that would keep the guppies out of my sump?
 
Why not flick the feeders on a the head to stun them, cant swim far then. Before some body says its cruel to do this, he is feeding them to fish.

It works mate
 
You're gonna flick 50 feeders on the head? Sounds easier to put some sort of netting at the weirs

Maybe he's s serial flicker?

Gonna need some pretty fine netting to keep small guppies from going through. Let us know if you find something that works
