Anybody using a Calfo overflow?

I am going to design my setup inside and out. Since my new tank is not a RR tank I was going to install a Calfo overflow system AKA a horizontal overflow. Just wondering if anybody is using them and what they like or do not like about them.

I'm considering adding one to my tank now. They are the best overflows ever. I'd suggest getting some black acrylic to cover the top so you can reduce the amount of algae that can possibly build up in it.

Great suggestion on the blk acrylic. I actually though about that some time ago, but I was also thinking that you would have dark area across the back of the tank and I'm not sure I want that. Then again you can just remove it if you don't like it.

Ya on my 450 I have a 6ft horizontal ovrflow ion the back with the overflow external. Would do it again!
