Sump Without a Drilled Tank

[akelly310]

Can you have a sump in a tank that isn’t drilled? If so, how?

U overflow. Not the best thing in the world to be honest.

If you go this route look into the eshopps overflows I ran one for years and never had a siphon break.

just don't get one that requires a water lifting pump,

Been running a lifereef overflow on my 55 gal for a few years now and never had any issues despite numerous power outages.. it has never lost its syphon! I highly recommend them!

I bought my first tank used, and it was setup with the U overflows. I hated the one that I had. It would loose siphon all the time, and it flooded my floor more than once. I put up with that setup for nearly a year before I just bought a new drilled tank.
