Thanks for the tips!
But for the overflow, i can't drill, because my tank is tempered glass, and I want to build a DIY filter to keep costs down. I was thinking of doing the PVC one here: http://www.3reef.com/forums/i-made/nice-ch...flow-29396.html
I am going to build a Diy wet dry filter for my 55 gallon freshwater tank. I already have a 10 gallon tank to use as a sump. What is the best design for the overflow and the filter itself.
What is a good material for the drip plate?

Will it work, and how wide will the pvc need to be for 10x turnover?
I have a 55 gallon freshwater tank. The fish inside are:
Black Ghost Knife
Pleco
Pictus
2 Bala sharks
3 silver dollars
They are all young and the largest is the Black ghost knife at 5-6 in.
I think that i need to have a wet dry for the future for these fish, maybe even a bigger tank eventually...
i have
1black ghost knife
3silverdollars
2rosy barbs
1pictus catfish
1dwarf gourami
1fire gourami
2 bala sharks

WHen the fish get bigger do i need a bigger tank?
Should i change my 60 whisper power filter to a canister?
