you didn't read my last post did ya

actualy having a overflow that big is efficient as it allows a larger surface skimming action. is it needed, not realy but it also provides a track to hide return piping in also if you think about it.

Ah yes i should read more, I like the idea of hiding the pipes in it. But still i think it would be really loud even with a stand pipe of somesort.
