1.) Buy a good quality drill bit - www.technologylk.com
2.) Have a local acrylics shop build you a box.
3.) Buy yourself some bulkheads, strainers and PVC/hose barbs.
4.) Get some Marine Goop from the hardware store to mount the box.

bump, also if my tank has a sticker that says "Inspected by Pat Q100", who made my tank? i bought it used, the dude i bought it from said it was AGA. the glass panels that came with it also say AGA, but i want to be on the safe side and find out who made it..any ideas?

where else can i get an overflow from?
