Nope, you and I are talking about the same thing dude. The correct name for what you want to do with the weir is called a notch cut. I'm not planning on teeth, only a small piece of egg crate in the overflow to stop sump riders.

I've had a few quotes, but that C2C overflow notch cut will add at least $100 to the price of the tank. For a rimless 45g square tank with that style overflow I got quotes ranging from $500 to $700... So I'm just gonna build it myself for about $200 in material.
