blackpuma,

can i do without the outside box ? that mean i have the internal box and the output flow directly into the sump.... becos i got no space to place the outside box...

pls advise

thanks.

steven

if i'm not mistaken this will create a full gravity siphon, one of the problems with this is the traditional toilet bowl sound

so i do not think u can do without the outside box

:idea: but internal box is still able to "stop siphon when return pump off and auto restart siphonning when pump start back ", right ?

i am planning to diy a overflow box. anyone have any idea where to get the materials ? or anyone can sell cheap cheap.... :D

without the outside box it'll not auto start and stop when there's a black out

i think if you see the design already you would understand what me and hermit are saying regarding this pt

sell cheap cheap?

how cheap?...asking cos i got one planning for sale soon... :off: i selling about 90

if you interested pm me pls

no............

internal box do no help to restart the siphon action!

it is the ext box buffering region which restart the siphoning only

internal box jus a part where water get in ,blocking fishes with those teeth like thing.

amount of siphoning may also depend on the size of internal box not to get the size volume of return too..........!

:D

Hi Hermit, I agree with you. If I remember correctly you are the one that actually DIY a overflow box specially for someone who is now selling it. Sigh.... <_<

specially for someone?

i thought he makes it for quite a number of other reefers right hermit?

besides, i believe that someone decommissioned his tank and so has no more use for the overflow box, might as well sell it and share the marvelous work of hermit with others

:P

Yah decommissioned cuz he is too busy teaching others what he know nuts about and neglected his own tank! :D

Decommissioned cuz he could'nt solve his own tank problems thus might as well end it before it crashed! :D

something is very wrong now................!

bro shoelevy i think u gotto keep words to urself if not thousands of 155rds going to hit on you..!

bro

u ownself saw what he wrote without me provoking him recently

if he said that to you, what would u feel?

i know he's a A class reefer and i suck, i'm D grade because i crashed my tank

but SO WHAT?

who doesn't make mistakes?

the probably only difference between me and him is he make small mistakes and i made a BIG one

everyone,u be the judge, who's being the arrogant sone here

about wrong advice i give, he probably still dwells over the incident where i stood up for a reefer whom everyone thought did the wrong thing with his setup, but what happened in the end?...he posted his tank pics, he posted one reply showing his knowledge and preparation before starting on the hobby and everyone was impressed.

i don't mind being wrong and heeding good advice, but this birdie here, instead of correcting my mistakes, goes on a sarcastic spree of words

even established reefers here gif me gd advice...but not this one

why?...u ask him

I think maybe one day, I will have to made public certain PMs still in my folders.

But in the meantime, let the one with the most noise air his knowledge. ;)

bro gouldian.....disregarding anything between us...

but u didnt participate in this post since it started in 16 Jan...and all of a sudden u came in to straight away shoot shoelevy when he did not say anything wrong...all he said was seeing the design with hermit correcting it to be the concept and all of a sudden u just come in and critise him....

a lack of knowlwdge doesnt mean know nothing at all...i really dont see what shoelevy said wrongly...he might really understand the concept....and posting his views ...and that doesnt mean that whatever is says is definetely wrong just because of a few wrong facts he posted in the past...no one is perfect.....u also do not know everything...

and i repeat...disregarding anything between us :peace::peace:

Thanks DK for pointing it out. ;) really appreciate it. But wonder why you also barge in too. ;)

Anyway, as I mentioned I will not say more unless I want to spill the beans to all, including the most recent PMs I have received. :D

This sounds so familiar.

Sign.... didn't know still got 40+ yrs old reefers around but still not matured enough to admit his mistake and apologise. This is not referring to you or gouldian but someone else :P Now all LFS should blacklist him.
