I recently purchased a used 125 gallon tank with 2 overflows. When I filled the tank one of the overflows started filling with water before the other. . The tank was drilled and glass installed to make the overflows before I purchased. the overflows are Durso type overflows.

The side that has the glass higher has varying water level. It will be even witrh the other then fall 2 inches and then fill back up those 2 inches and repeat this all the time.

How can i fizx this short of putting new glass in?
 
Can you post a couple of pics of what you are talking about. I think I may know what is going on but need to see it to be sure.

Also how do you have it plumbed from the bottom of the tank to your sump? Can you get a pic of that too?
 
I re-read the Durso instructions and dumb me had a loop in the flex hose on one side of the overflow. I rerouted and all is fine. Thanks Mike
