Lost my mind....or, here we go again!

Beananimal. I've never really gotten the point. I think Herbie is the shiz.

I'd totally love to have a coast-to-coast next time around. Take the thinnest sliver off the surface and if it's wide enough and you're not trying to force 10,000 gph through your sump you really don't need eggcrate or anything on the overflow.

"Beananimal" ok thanks. I couldn't remember it and it would have taken easily 2 minutes of googling before I stumbled randomly across it.

I agree, I think Herbie's are completely it. I'm not sure what this beananimal has to offer over Herbies, but I thought I'd at least bring it up because there is nothing worse than finding out after the fact about something else you could have considered.

Cool! hopefully I'll be able to get things to grow with the new system, and can trade you some back!

Stockman and Durso are really identical ideas, just different shapes.

You could go coast to coast with an internal overflow and still drill out the bottom. You'd just have to have the coast-to-coast part like a bridge and then in one (or both) of the corners still your traditional overflow tower (I'm not sure what to call the box part).

Sort of like an upside-down U (well, a squared off U anyhow).

Quite a bit of fabricating for that, and I'd lose more space than just standard internal stacks. Although smaller than what I've used in the past, so that might work. Even a single stack with room for 2 or 3 pipes, a T rather than a U
