New tank mistake
So I jumped the gun and drilled some holes in a 90 gallon. My original plan has changed. Therefore , I’m looking on suggestions if there’s anywhere out there I can buy an overflow kit with no holes so I can match my tank? Internal surface skimmer and external overflow box with no bulk heads drilled. Thanks in advance for Any input

You might also post this in the DIY forum, where there may be a greater knowledge base.

A DIY box is fairly easy to attach to the back of a tank permanently; then you don't need any new holes.

Have a glass shop cut pieces of whatever size you need and then just silicone them to the back wherever it is you need them. You can also patch the holes by siliconing the same thickness glass over the holes. If the glass shop is like the one I use, they'll even cut circles for you so they blend in to the back a little better.
