Some questions:
I'm assuming the tank bottom is NOT tempered? Were you concerned about shattering the glass during your drilling?
What size hole did you drill? I'm assuming a 1.5" diameter?
How tall is the tank itself? 24"?

Sorry if these have already been answered

Thanks for the props!

Tank is 16 3/4" high. The bottome was not tempered, I check with the tank maker before having it drilled. Not sure what size hole the guy used when he drilled it but the bulkhead is a 1" BH threaded.

what is the benefit of a overflow box?
