![]() ![]() This is what i want, 3-1 inch bulkheads with 1.5" down plumbing.ġ) has anyone had this/built this overflows systems? any feedback?Ģ)it says it can "easily handle 2000 GPH" do u think 2000 GPH is to much for a 60g?ģ)what kind of return pump? 2000GPH or less GPH so i can dial the overflow down?Ĥ)last question, for the coast to coast i plan to use acrylic(not sure what size yet) but the home depot i town doesnt carry any black acrylic. Quick review for Bean Animal Overflows (which is what I have): theres a primary drain that should always be 100 full, underwater, and under siphon. But, with this idea, it could be SILENT And the thing holding me back is the lack of an API in Hydros. all i found was a sticker saying Mar 29, 2001, guess ill have to make a call.īeanAnimal's Bar and Grill - Silent and Fail-Safe Overflow System So my overflow, a bean animal style is decently quiet. make sure theres about 3-maybe even 4-5 cm head pressure distance to get that single pipe flowing 100. People have made herbies, etc back there for noise. A hob has an intake box, 2 tubes running over the top of the tank into a hanging overflow box. The return pumps ball valve acts to regulate and dial in the exact flow to have just a trickle into the thr 2nd drain pipe. The best alternative for high flow is to do a 'Bean Animal' or 'Herbie' type of drain that incorporates multiple drains and/or a permanent siphon to the typical setup. ![]() i looked to see if it had any stickers saying if it was tempered glass, nothing. The second drain pipe acts as the unrestricted emergency overflow and also the slight trickle over flow. If you need the assembly to come apart, then you should use a union fitting wherever you want to break apart the assembly. I plan to turn this tank into my new reef tank.:bounce::^: i want to drill the tank for a Bean Animal Drain system with a coast to coast overflow. You will want to glue every joint except the piece that actually extends below the water line in your sump, for example the piece that would dump into a filter sock. its a 36Lx21Hx18.5W 60 gallon freshwater oceanic systems aquarium and stand. Ill have to make a little overflow box as well. One hole is a full syphon, one durso style, and an emergency to keep the tank from overflowing if the others get clogged. I think Im going to use the bean animal design that has 3 holes. So a couple days ago i got a free 60 gallon setup from my cousin who moved out of town and couldnt take it with him, so he gave it to me. The tank is tempered on the bottom, so Ill have to drill the back.
