      The only person I know not using a dome on their bottom drains
      is Maurice Cox at Koi UK. The reason is that he sometimes uses
      a seine/drag net to collect his fish and using a domed drain
      would snag the net so Maurice uses a flush fitting grid instead.

      However I understood that the dome creates "side-suction" that
      most need to suck all muck down into the drain.

      I suppose it depends on the pump flow rate you use to see if
      a grid works or not to give your system enough suction.


      Good luck
