    Nice job! I was wishing you had done a rotation on the axis that makes the white to black pipe bridge more visible. But I've seen the DIY page for this design and know how it works, so this comment is more on behalf of others who haven't and don't.

    Interesting mod to the typical DIY PVC overflow. Looks very nice. Great job.

    Hi
    If the water is low in the clear tube you can hear it. But if you keep it at the top like in the video that you cant hear a thing.
