Has anyone ever used this for their sump?
I am finalizing my sump design and am considering using this to connect my overflow to my sump.
http://www.drsfostersmith.com/produc...m?pcatid=16746 It looks like a solid design. Just want some reasurance before ordering.

I don't think that will fit on my sump. I plan on using an AGA 40g breeder. Will the one I'm looking at fit on the rim of an AGA tank? Also, does it get secured with screws or does it just hang on the tank?

I use it on a 40B also, but not sure if it is an AGA or not. It sets on the rim and has plastic screws that some from the back to snug it up. It's a good product imo. If you need me to i can go measure it.

seagirl, does your tank have a rim? If it does then it is probably an AGA tank
