    Durso overflow question

    Drill hole in cap, pass tubing down until you find the silent sweet spot. I mentioned rigid tubing earlier so that it doesnt flip back on itself unintentionally Dont mess with return flow because it would very difficult to achieve long term balance. And this is how older style overflow boxes...
