I just put my glass order in for a 165 gallon tank i have a week to decide how i want to drill it so i'm lookin for some ideas. I want to save as much room as possible on the overflows. The tank dimensions are
72" L x 24" W x 24" H. Any ideas are greatly appreciate it. thanks

Make your overflow box external then you won't lose any tank space to it :-)

you mean with the outlet bulkhead up high in the sidewall of the tank with a strainer on it?

Nope. I mean with the outlet bulkhead inside a box that sits outside of your tank. There will be a notch at the top of your tank where the water will drain out into the overflow box.
