Just installed this sump the other day and I'm really happy with it....except for one thing.

I have a wrasse that is forever getting into my overflow and taking the plunge down my drain line. In my old sump I had plenty of room to fish him out of the filter sock, this tank is a different story. The line dumps into a compartment with no removable walls or tops to allow for access. So I basically had to grab my five year old and use her skinny arm to reach in the plug hole to try and catch this fish!

Any inventors out there that wanna try their hand at a colapsable net that will fit down the small hole, open to cover the area of the chamber and then fold in around the fish for easy removal through the hole?? Anyone out there have any suggestions otherwise?

No way to put a screen on your drain line up top?
Working on it. Tricky part is the durso and rtn lines come above the lip of the overflow so it wouldnt be a secure fit.
