Hidden Closed Loop Intake

[mark]

Did a quick google search but not finding a threaded or slip flat strainers but have seen them in builds. Worst case could just have the bulkhead coming into the display and get a tub strainer and hold in place with a bead of silicone. If got creative could even mount a nylon nut in the bulkhead and fasten through to it. The one in the picture is about 4" in diameter.

Also here's my 2" CL intake in the overflow with room to spare.

Mark, is that overflow noisy? Another reason fro me to have my standpipes high is to mimize the water fall noise from the overflow. Acctually, it works. Because last week, the air inlet to to durso got a little plugged with salt creep. So, the drain was siphoning, and the resultant noise from the larger overflow drop alerted me to something not right with the tank.

Would be if I ran it like this. What I did was removed the Durso then moved the standpipe over to get a picture. With everything in-place the water drops only about 1.5" into the overflow chamber.
