Default Using a canister filter and an overflow for a sump?

Thanks for the info. As far as an overflow, is it possible to build one
cheaper instead of buying one?

I don't know, it seem like a piece of plastic with a hose attached, am I
wrong?

TIA

Everyone knows buying a sump kit gets very expensive. However, the
benefits are great, from increasing the water volume to hiding all the
equipment.

I was thinking on using a canister filter to pull the water from a 10G

tank
to the main tank and a hanging overflow to the 10G.

What do you think the drawbacks are if there's any?
