Simple DIY overflow system using a breeder box

I've made a simple overflow box using an old breeder box. Flow rate of this overflow is full dependent on the size of the siphon bridge. The bigger the pipe, the better flow rate you will get.

I've watched too many videos on this topic, by far yours is the most well explained of them all. Atleast for a noob like myself.....😊

Great video! I was gawking at the prices for the overflow boxes on the market. They have a remarkably similar build to hang on back filters (both plastic and tubes in a hanging configuration, one has a motor and the other a tube where the hole would be), but the cost difference is insane. Hoping to make these to kit out a freshwater fish room without drilling holes into the aquarium. Very glad to have found your channel today (the stream tank looks amazing).

Thanks alot for the kinds words! Pcv piping is cheap in my region. I got to know from a viewer in Canada, the pvc pipes are expensive like hell!!

Great video,, going to make one. You could probably convert an old hang on back filter in the same way.

Yes you can

Yea with adjustable height if you add a movable sleeve to the breeder box intake

@iamthanatos1986 Год назад

This is very helpful! Would replicate this to my next saltwater tank project. One question though, is the siphon maintained even after the pump went off?

@TheStreamAffair Год назад

Yes

@Ttblondey Год назад

Maybe can use used hob to do the job too i think

@TheStreamAffair Год назад

Yes. Also can

@bluei8946 Месяц назад

hi boss , can you make one for me

@highreviews7622 Год назад

What flow rate can be achieved? I'm looking for 2000lph. Also does the bulkhead drain make noise?

@TheStreamAffair Год назад

I'm sorry I didnt measure the flow rate, but i guess anything larger than 32mm diameter should be able to achieve 2000 LPH. U can try to make a durso standpipe to have a quiet overflow.

@nishanthninja2639 Год назад

Should air be out everytime after motor restarts?

@TheStreamAffair Год назад

No, only once is required. As long as the pipe is properly primed, there shouldnt be any more air trapped inside

@ozmenta9444 11 месяцев назад

Does this setup has same flow rate as compared to some Advance overflow systems which you had built earlier or will it be slower?

@TheStreamAffair 11 месяцев назад

Yes flow rate will be slower for this setup as it is not an actual siphon. But if the bridge is bigger between the tank and the overflow tank. You can try to get back the flow rate that you desire

@ozmenta9444 11 месяцев назад

@dankmemes8039 3 месяца назад

Thnak you so much! how do you calculate the flowrate?

@TheStreamAffair 3 месяца назад

Take the timing of the overflow to fill up a bucket (eg 5 liters). Divide the time taken by 120 seconds/60 mins. Take the value and multiple by 5L. U will get the flow rate of eg.4500L/Hour

@dankmemes8039 3 месяца назад

@@TheStreamAffair thank you so much, what say it reads 2500 liters an hour, can i use a 2000 liter a hour return pump?

@TheStreamAffair 3 месяца назад

@dankmemes8039 yes anything slowly should be fine. U can always add a ball valve at the overflow to control the flowrate and match ur pump. It will take some time to find the right spot

@dankmemes8039 3 месяца назад

becuase i read online that as long as the return pumps flow rate is greater then the overflow boxes flow rate it should be fine becuse the overflow box wants to keep the same level of water as the tank - is that true? @@TheStreamAffair

@TheStreamAffair 3 месяца назад

I think its otherwise? Because if ur return pump is faster. It means ur sump tank compartment that houses the return pump will be empty faster, as water going into ur sump tank is slower.

@MagnaRads Год назад

Does the siphon bridge only control flow rate or the size of bulkhead also? I cannot achieve 3000l per hour with 1 inch pvc I have to turn my pump down

@TheStreamAffair Год назад

The diameter of the entire setup matters
