Default W.T.B. Lifereef Overflow Box

I am looking for anyone selling a lifereef overflow box. I only need the standard single tube, but I will consider anything by this name that you might have to sell. Please, this is the only piece that is hanging me up from completing my much needed and very over due sump/refugium build and I really want to complete this and have it up and running.

Send me a pm so we can discuss.

Default One more attempt to get this overflow box

I will try one more time to try to get this box from here and then I will have no other choice than to buy it direct from the lifereef site and have it ship from the U.S. I had a couple of opportunities from here that we were not able to reach agreements on, but no problem with that. I will soon just choose to use my other options and still try to keep my sump/refugium build and installation in a reasonable time line.

Thanks, D.B.S.

Life Reefs are great but there are a lot of knock offs that work just as well.

Have used lifereef and this brand and couldn't say their was much of a difference..

Further to this...
I built my own "lifereef" style overflow and it works perfectly...

I use PVC for the u-tube and was surprised how well this works...

Thanks very much for the input. I have heard this one recommended before and I was pretty concerned that it might not be accurate advice, but I am hearing it more frequently and now you have given me personal use and experience with both of those overflows. I guess you can't get better input than someone's personal experience about something can you. I will take another look at that and really consider this because not only is this a cheaper option but the shipping is a real shocker and it takes so long. If I add another item or two at J & L I can get the shipping free and that alone is worth the look. Thanks again for the input and advice.
