One of the advantages of buying an Eshopps PF800 is that it has a long history, so you can be sure that you'll get a quality product. Unlike traditional overflows, which require you to drill holes in the aquarium, the PF HOB uses a siphon to draw water over the wall. This makes the tank more stable and allows you to hide the equipment.
The eshopps PF-800 is a hang-on overflow box that requires a minimum 3-inch clearance from the wall. It features a U-tube design that has a maximum flow rate of 800 gallons per hour. In addition, it is adjustable. Its compact design makes it ideal for tight spaces. It comes with a set of nylon screw & wingnuts to hang it on the wall. A black pre-filter box and foam prefilter are also included.
The PF-800 comes with an external overflow box, a mag drive 9.5 and a siphon that never lost its siphon. I have tested the PF-800 with a ten-gallon tank and it was paired with the Eshopps PSK-100 HOB protein skimmer. The PF-800 was also a good choice for a small home lab because it never had any problems with the siphon and has a high capacity. It is one of the best choices you can make for a protein-based aquarium.
