Can anyone tell me how to keep snails out of my overflow box? Right now I'm using filter media which worked really well until it fell down the overflow box today. Now i have a tiny snail stuck.

 

TIA

I wouldn't worry too much.  My snails get into the over flow on my skimmer, into the HOB filter... you name it.  If they can get in, they can get out.

I use black plastic gutter guard which comes in a roll from HD.

Keeps them out. They generally are not a problem except when they block off the bulkhead from draining.

Then they are a PITA
