Default Built in external overflow

My new 67g from IA - funky little overflow built in to allow more room in tank.

I like it Did they cut slots in the back of the tank,or a bulk head going into the overlow box?

Jim, the glass is cut in a curve with eggcrate on there. When I picked it up, the guy there and I both thought it was cut too low. But with the Mak4 I hooked up on it, it is just perfect. I'll put in some black plastic or something so you can't see it so much from the front.

Yes, it's a ground probe. Trevor suggested I move it into the overflow - it was in the front...saved me a few times..

Default is it noisy

have you thought about putting an elbow over that outflow pipe? makes everything much quieter. My 180 is from ia as well and has a similar overflow which works really well
