    Hi Folks.
    I have had some before, bought here in SA, and just cannot remember what it is called. The ones I had were bright pink. It is a plastic goodie/thingy that you put on the top of an overflow pipe, and it kinda jiggles around and stops the noise of the water going down into the pipe. It has got a particular name this thing. They are brilliant for stopping the gurgling noise from the overflow. Thanks guys

    AH the brain clicked in to gear at least. MAGGIE MUFFLER - best invention ever to stop gurgling noise in an overflow !!! Some pet shops do sell them, or will get them if you ask.
