Hi guys,

I already have eggcrate glued down on the perimeter of my internal overflow but yet this is the 3rd time I had to bend over to get a fish out of there... don't know how they got in also... either they slipped thru the eggcrate or they jumped over it...

Any ideas?

bro...

i'm using a piece of plastic meant for dividing drawers.

easier to apply, just use silicon to glue to the side of the overflow...working well so far.

slits might be a bit narrow but can be trim.

have a lot of spare, if u r interested can collect FOC from me at jurong.

:lol:

Problem solved.. undergravel filters were too expensive, so I went to those neighbourhood stores and bought a black plastic basket with holes at the sides... sawed and cut it to size then zip tied it to the existing eggcrate... don think any fishes can get in anymore, unless the are high jump specialists!.. hehe

thanks guys!
