raising water level with bulkheads

[revival]

Plan on running strainers with my bulkheads. I understand that the water level will be only as high as the bulkheads are. I was told that adding an 90 elbow can help raise the water level. What other options are there? Im just looking for ideas or examples on what to do.

Any help or advice is appreciated.

Adding an elbow is pretty much the way to do it unless you want to add additional plumbing on the outside of the tank that will regulate the water level.

mine has a rotating elbow so I can always go higher or lower. works great.

Just so im on the same page, your goal is to add strainers to the intake only, and a solution to achieve this?

Do you need an increased water height,
what are they straining? just stopping livestock from taking the plunge, or your wanting them vertical as a pre detritus filter?
