    What do those who have an Odyssea Overflow think of it?

    I think im going to stick with my plan to drill the tank, but this is such an easy and cheap way that I wanted to give it thought..

    Dont know about Odyssea overflows. But I'll tell ya....I, personally, am not a big fan of that outfit. The two overflows I would steer you towards are (in order of preference):

    **CPR overflow with an Aqua-lifter.
    **Esshops overflow modded with an Aqua-lifter.

    Of greatest import is the ability to maintain siphon. You need not only a good design, but a good method of maintaining siphon. When siphon is lost (power outage), some of the older models and designs don't hold and floods occur when power is restored.

    Anyone familiar with these things. They are awfully cheap, but look like carbon copy of the CPR model.
