I was never provided a pic or link over on RC but imagine a 36" long (or however long u want), 2-3" deep section of glass cut out from the top edge of the back panel... Your water level would be determined by how deep you get the "weir" cut.

when the tank level gets to that height, it pours over the "weir" and into your external overflow box, and from there everything else is as it should be.

I think it would look smooth with your tank since you don't have a pesky rim to deal with, get it cut, grind down, and polished to match the rest of the tank lip!

Hope that makes sense! haha!
