CurtBoswell Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 My tank has flooded too many times so I am going to buy a mr aqua 17.1 gallon rimless. Does anyone know where I can find it cheaper than $100? How should I drill and plumb to the sump and the return? What plumbing parts should I use? Brands? My return pump is a marine land mini jet 606. Thanks! Link to comment
Eckozulu Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Overflow and plumbing. Should never worry about flooding again: http://m.ebay.com/itm/191281654428 Return pump. DC controllable, jaebo, reef octopus, fluval, or waveline. You'll love it. Link to comment

dyazdani Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 If you get the item in the link above, you'd drill holes for the two bulkhead fittings in the back of your tank. The drains on the bottom of the overflow box would then go to your sump. Link to comment
Drexellake Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Drill in the back. Mr Aqua 17 can be had for $85-100. I picked up the low lead version for $109 on EBay. Glass holes.com has kits with hole saws and plumbing. Link to comment
