Where to buy this fitting

[Cartel]

The overflows on my 125 have managed to suck down 4 cardinal tetras this week. I would like to buy some more but would like to address this issue first. My overflows are straight cut 1" pvc pipes (yes its loud no i don't care its in the basement) I would like to put a strainer on them. I don't care if they are slip or threaded ill adapt them but I just cant find them. I think my main issue is not knowing their technical name. Any source or name for these? Or other ideas will be entertained as well.


Something similar to this.

I'd get a rubberband and some lace. Michael's (probably has a 40% off coupon)...

Valid option. So simple I cant believe I didn't think of it!

Will a AC20 sponge work? If not try Congressional or Tropical Lagoon.

Or the fluval edge prefilters, you can get them cheap on amazon.com.

Jehmco has strainers that can be plumbed into standard PVC fittings.

Wil - I realize you said you don't care about noise, but I made a couple of Dursos for my 180 for about $6 worth of fittings (if that). Took 20 minutes to cut PVC, piece together and install. Life is *much* better now.

I may have to bribe you to come over one day to help me figure it out. I attempted to make a durso for it awhile back and failed. After finishing the basement this weekend it's now my man cave so finally the sound got to me last night while watching a movie.

No doubt man. Will work for hoppy beverages.

Perfect Mini fridge downstairs is always stocked! Beer pong and other activities can follow suit. Might as well make it a whole deal. I'll hit you up after the holidays are all wrapped up. Thanks.

Rubber bands will rot apart in 6mo, use something better.
