    I realized when I set up my tank, that the overflow, (CS-102), it was just too noisy. Like my son slurping the end of a McDonalds shake! I read up on it, and it seems they sell a top that goes over it. Seperately of course. Didn't see that when I bought it, so, with some acrylic I had lying around, and some Locktite plastic glue, I made my own! Best is, the cost was $0.00!
    And now it is much quieter. I thought I would share it with all of you.

    Its still drying, hense the blue tape.

    I put an edge on the end so I could put the llifter on it and it wouldn't fall off.
    And also glued small strips on the inside so it wouldn't slide off.
