Decorative cover for vertical overflow pipe?

Post by bretta »

I'm searching endlessly on google to find a cover for the 4" pvc pipe we're using for an overflow.

The pipe is vertical, so the entire 4" opening is at the water level and visible. Looking for a lillypad or similar type of decorative cover to mount to the pipe opening.

Ideas?


Thanks

Brett -
Do you have any pics of the overflow pipe that you could post on the forum or email me (jake@aquaeden.com) :?:

How close is the pipe to the shoreline?

Usually we like to have our overflow pipes hidden in rock work or under a natural log along the shore.

Is there a way that you can re route the pipe to be closer to the edge? Maybe plant some plants around it. Or even attach some artificial plants that look real - you can get them cheap at craft stores.

Hope I can help, :D
