Go to my other mod thread,
How to make a Remora act like an Urchin
And look at the "Lid" I made for over the injector.

You don't have to make it out of acrylic, The one I copied is made from the lid of a margarine container & they put airline tube around the edges to close the gap. I'll try to find a link to that page.

The Overflow worked great this weekend while I away. The collection cup filled and then the excess went down the pipe & out to the bottle
