    Help! overflow issue

    been doing it this way since my first tank was set up in April 2000 (54 corner FO) then upgraded in 2004 to 92 corner FO. also have 75 (soon to be 125) w ccichlids. should probably take a closer look at the tap water situation now that i have the 265. what do you suggest?
