jack1978 Posted September 11, 2017 Author Share Posted September 11, 2017 This tank setup can kiss my ass. ####ing fish jumped in the overflow box 2 weeks ago. Just ripped everything apart to get him out.....think I ####ed him up in the process. He's now hiding in the rockwork. Fingers crossed he lives and that I didn't crack the ####ing plumbing. Why do we do this shit? 2 Quote Link to comment

Thank God Mrs Jack is out late tonight....the house is trashed. Gonna pick up the girls and go find a tank to use as the sump....I've always hated this sump. Oh, you know what else sucks...... the damn MPs fall off the damn tank when power is cut to them. Now I get to try and remove them from behind the tank Not to get excited prematurely .... but the hogfish has exited the rockwork and is swimming around.....not so gracefully....but.......fingers crossed. 2 Quote Link to comment
jbb Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 I bought some cross stitch screen at walmart and made a cover for my overflow. Water can get through if need be, but it keeps fish and snails out of the plumbing. It was only a couple of dollars and then I spray painted black. The only thing holding it in place is a couple of dabs of silicone. 3 Quote Link to comment
