anyone ever used any of the overflows from www.austinoceans.com. They look good and i talked to who ever answered there phone and he was very helpful.

they are a 5x5x5 or 6x6x6 boxs..... mounted on back wall with bulk head conected to the back of the overflow box itself.

my concerns are if they leak over time???

they also have this cool lookin turbo overflow were the return tube comes up and back in to the overflow box and in to a bulk head out the bottom through an (eductor ???).

anyone used these too.

I've seen them on the site. They wont leak unless the bulkhead gaskets leak which can easily be remedied by using new gaskets. Seems like a good idea for those who didnt buy a reef ready and have no objections to drilling their tank and who dont want a HOB overflow. Although, it's not really going to look any different than a HOB overflow with colored internal box so I'm not sure if it would be worth the drilling risk. Cool alternative though.
