Looking for an overflow and someone to drill my tank.

Alright I need an overflow rated at around 300 gph or even 500 at the most. I need to use it with a mag 7 so whatever would fit, with about a 6 foot head i would say...

Also Im looking for someone who can punch a quick hole in a ten gall tank. I have a great Idea for a sump/fuge, but I would like one tank to have a hole in it. Would pay with either cash or a frag. LMK

thanks

what size hole are you wanting to drill?

Pillz an max7 would be too strong for an 300 GPH and 500 GPH.

I assume you have a glass tank? I have a dremmel if you wanna buy the bit and borrow! :-)

a mag 7 with a 6 foot head? I think that would only do around 500 gph at the most.

But I have a dremel, just dont want to mess up a tank. Even though its only 10 bucks.

According to the headloss calculator at RC a Mag7 at 6' with 3/4" tubing will produce 353 GPH. Add in however many 90's,45's, ball valves etc and it will be even less.
