Yeah, I'm thinking of going this route. I had thought magnets, but they add extra bulk I couldn't afford in the tiny space so I think I'm going to try another route for making it "floaty." Haha
There is small magnets that will work and use rubble and reef cement to make it around the magnet.
Yeah, I think I figured out something else though.
It goes with my sort of cave theme as well.
All the cool kids have one.Idk if I got suckered into this or what, but something arrived today...
I'm still trying to figure that out myself. I'm thinking of making a mini U tube for the overflow and then an over the tank return so I don't have to drill anything. I am going to drill for the ATO, but I'd like to avoid drilling otherwise just in case my sump idea fails lol
Can you show more where to stick the airline and then where it would come out of to attach to a separate sump container? Would the tank need to be drilled anywhere?If your looking to add a different sump, just put airline tubing through bottom of return side and drain. Then you can attach a control valve at bottom to shutoff flow for both. You can buy clear acrylic rods and heat and bend for nozzle. I did the nozzle part for my tank. Use glue to seal bottom where tubing goes into display. If you want a more hang on back you can find glass pipes and U joints.
No drilling may ve needed if you can run it out through the sump holes where the power cords go. Tubing through those 2 ports in back should fit without drilling. Use the less rigid tubing. I make no garauntees with drilling and will be the risk to whoever dicides to try it. But it should be drillable if larger hole is needed.
Alot of awesomeness lol.
Thanks! This makes a lot of sense. I'll have to check mine out when I get a chance this weekend and see what I can rig up.No drilling may ve needed if you can run it out through the sump holes where the power cords go.

This first picture shows the hole already made. I used a dropper cut to attach airline tubing to spray nozzle.
This is the drain to sump. Where you can add another tubing through. This maybe where a larger hole could/ maybe needed. Again at your own risk. Drill slow and increase bit size slowly.
