DIY Aquarium PVC Overflow with Poop Separator feature

I will be showing you how to build a DIY Aquarium overflow just by using PVC pipes. This overflow have an additional feature where it can separate fish poop which will help keep your sump tank cleaner.
This is an alternative method if you are not able to drill any holes in your main tank due to various reason and still want to have a filtration system using a sump tank.
Remember to glue your PVC pipes once the fitting and size is confirmed and give it a good coat of paint of your own liking to make it look like a professionally build overflow!

Thank you very much for this video my friend, I was very interested in knowing how to do this kind of overflow filter. I saw it on TikTok, but the guy said to the people that comment if they want to see how to make it, but that never happened, all people said they wanted to know, but that guys never showed how to do it. Thank you very much!!!

[@TheStreamAffair]

You are welcome! You could share my tutorial in that tik tok video as well. Hahaha!!

[@JuanSoto-fx6un]

buenas tardes monterrey n. l. . cabo de ver este video y me parece muy interesante,en donde puedo ver las referencias de como armar este sistema de overflow

[@AidaMay]

Thank you for sharing this! Could you make a video on how to make a siphon for vacuuming sand substrate for larger tanks?

[@TheStreamAffair]

I made on video on how to clean sand gravel, but the one I made doesn't suck up or stir up the sand, but it is very effective in cleaning any detritus on the surface of the sand..I like this better , reason being it will not cause any ammonia spike due to stirring up the sand/gravel.
For ur case, u might need to use a larger diameter pipe/tube (50mm and above) at the suctioning section and connect it to a smaller diameter pipe and back to ur water hose. You can clean your sand cleaning during your water change.
Let me see if I can make a short video on how to do a hassle free water change and sand cleaning at the same time.

[@AidaMay]

@@TheStreamAffair Thank you so much! I am currently using a DIY siphon(Plastic bottle attached to the garden hose with a PVC pipe for structure ( and so the fish won't bite me). If I could make a somewhat automatic siphon like this, tank maintenance would be much faster, and safer.

[@XanhAquaVN]

best regards

[@TheStreamAffair]

Thanks

[@VDD13X]

wonderful idea.. i might use it even with my 2 filter oase system... what is the size of that tank behind ? 2.5m wide ? what depth / height ?

[@TheStreamAffair]

10 feet, 3 feet depth and 16 inch height

[@speolple4372]

Nak tanya pak,
kalau kita mau water change misal 60-80%
apa kita perlu sedot kembali udara dalam overflow??

[@lawrenceromaraog8362]

Hi, I have a problem. The siphon break is working, but when the pump starts pumping again, the overflow suction stops working

[@theviolentone]

Next video buat surface skimmer please ..

[@TheStreamAffair]

Klu nak surface skimmer..sambungkan satu T, kemudian tambah satu skimmer je.. nanti dalm video overflow baru, saya tunjukkan camne nak buat, ok?

[@steverandel6487]

Great video. Do you have a complete parts list breakdown?

[@TheStreamAffair]

[@ismailurzais7254]

Bisa beli apa gak kak ya
Apa ada link pembeliannya yaa

[@jesusgonalez4156]

Do you know what is the water flow of this exact example? Just so I can get a pump to match it and then just fine tune it with the valve

[@jesusgonalez4156]

Or what is the pump that you use for your sump?

[@Nik6891]

Please can you tell where did you get the wire mesh tube from ?

[@TheStreamAffair]

I got it from China

[@yeders]

Hi! This is great! The airline tube though, is that kept in the water? I can't tell in the video. Does it dictate the water level height in the main tank? Do you put a airline check valve on it?

[@TheStreamAffair]

Airline tube needs to be in the water. It acts as the siphone break, when air goes into the overflow it breaks the siphon

[@yeders]

​@@TheStreamAffairthanks. How far does the airline tube go down in the overflow side? Or is it just sitting at the top of the hole in the side?

[@macsdf1]

@@TheStreamAffair what if you have, like a bubble wand, and the airbubbles get sucked in too? will that break the siphon?

[@TheStreamAffair]

If bubbles continues to get trap in the overflow it will break the siphon and mess up with the overflow siphon capabilities

[@TheStreamAffair]

Its like u drinking water from a straw and if there is a big hole, u end up sucking more air than water

[@EggSpotTank]

hi, another question. @8:13 why 32mm pipe needed? will it work if I just extend the 25mm straight direct to the mesh (connected with socket between 25mm and a mesh) thanks

[@TheStreamAffair]

Yes you can

[@ArmanDafron]

Hello, i wanna ask something, you are uae 25mm for output on this overflow setup, and if i use 32mm pipe for overflow output. It will work like this video?

[@TheStreamAffair]

Yes, but u will need to factor in the size for the bigger dimension pipe to ensure the water flow is not restricted

[@ArmanDafron]

​@@TheStreamAffair Ohh, i mean on T reducer into 32mm. It will broke the water flow?

how much this all cost tho

[@amirunamir8096]

Flow rate return pump berapa bos?

[@TheStreamAffair]

Flow rate bergantung kepada saiz pvc pipe yg digunakan. Tapi flow rate ni lebih tinggi daripada overflow jenis advance yg sy muat naik dahulu.

[@xflash6229]

Do you sell this? Im from japan btw

[@user-zm4fs9gh6i]

Excuse me, why does the siphon stop restarting after it stops?

[@TheStreamAffair]

Because it is done wrongly. You can reach me in FB (same name as my channel) and share ur setup (video/picture) so that I can help identify the issue for you.

, I have run out of the parts right now and will need to do pre-order again in case there is a demand.

[@hawarirahmat2043]

Nama bahan²nya apa kak

[@extracostum3666]

Nak bertanya, saya sudah berhasil membuat DIY overflow ini dan berjalan lancar. Namun satu yang saya pikirkan, apa kaca saya dapat menahan pipa overflow seberat itu? Saya menggunakan pipe overflow luar 76,2 mm ( 3" ) dan pipa pemisah najis 38,1 mm ( 1,5" )

[@extracostum3666]

Saya menggunakan aquarium berukuran 5,3 x 1,1 x 2,3 feet

[@TheStreamAffair]

Maaf, saya tidak faham apa soalan kamu? Kenapa perlu kaca untuk menahan overflow ini?

[@TheStreamAffair]

Pipe yang transparent tu sebenarnya jenis acrylic

[@mohammadsaffiansaffaee568]

maaf, kemungkinan maksud dia dia risau adakah aquarium dia bertahan dengn berat dari ukuran overflow yg dia telah dia buat, dgn saiz yg 3 inch dan bukan 25mm.
ni soalan saya saiz overflow ni sesuai dengan range aquarium saiz berapa ke berapa.

[@TheStreamAffair]

Kegunaan overflow bergantung kepada pump flow rate dan bukan saiz aquarium.

Tutorial bikin nyah?

[@TheStreamAffair]

Inilah video tutorial dia, sila tengok habis video

[@xuanquynhnguyen8832]

how many liters per minute capacity?

[@TheStreamAffair]

I didnt actually measure it, but I believe it can support pump with capacity of 4000L/H. If ur pvc diameter is bigger, then it can support even more

[@xuanquynhnguyen8832]

Do you think i can use it for the tank 1300x600x700?

[@xuanquynhnguyen8832]

About 450 liters

[@TheStreamAffair]

It depends on the pump saiz and your sump tank as well. You will need to make sure the water displacement from your tank can fill into ur sump tank without overflowing and make sure the pump that you use is able to handle the flow rate.
