New fish room project.

Hi Hans
What are the measurements of the holes you had drilled in your breeding tanks for the pipes to join up to the sump and where are they best positioned?

All my overflows are a 1" bulkhead if that's what you mean.

Would the pipe/overflow suck down fry or smaller fish?

Yes, if they fit trough the strainer, they can be sucked up, most babies stay away from the overflow. if I want to save the fry I take a small sponge filter and pull it over the strainer.

Did you cut and glue the pond foil to fit the contour of your sump? It looks pretty wrinkle free for simply using a single piece.

It's just loose in the wooden box and YES it took some time to get it smooth and nice flat as I wanted lol

That must have taken some time. Thank you for sharing your project. I've learned a lot from reading through it.
