Hi. I will send it to you tomorrow. Yes you will have to create a siphon,
don't worry about gravity spills, the water will only siphon as deep as
your
outlet tube allows, IOW if you only have the siphon going 5-10cm below the
water level then this is where the siphon breaks! Just make sure that your
bucket/tank can take the extra few gallons. I'll send you the link
tomorrow,
its much easier to see when there's pics involved.

OK, here's the link to the overflow

and heres the link to his main page

take a look at some of the sump designs to give you some more ideas. If I
can be of any further assistance just SHOUT . Have a nice evening.

That never occured to me. If I keep the output of the tank near the top, I
can't drain it all out. Good thinking.
