    yup.. it might still overflow in the main tank even with a valve at the return tube.

    Me too.. i'm trying to build my own refuge and i need a cheap overflow. 50-60$ is kinda alot for a refuge.

    actually, if you get a 5.5 cheapie tank from kmart, they are plastic, just drill it!! plus they look pretty cool too, not just ur standard box type of tank. i like min alot, just added a skimmer pc light and new filters, but the tank looks cool and is drillable
