buy the largest they make any HOB will work you may have to MOD a bit more but there are some that are nice and long that would work realy well. I can't remember the make they have two over flows you would have to block one they are also black, you have to remove the lid anyway; but the volume would be more than the AC. they are very easy to convert I'll lock for the thread and post.

Found the thread.

I have one I am not using any more. I forget the brand but it is 24 inches long, helped out quite a bit before i changed tanks to a sumped system.

It needs cleaning and i was planning on fixing the center brace<just needs a dab of weld on which i don't have yet.> although i used it for months without the center brace doing anything, the flex in the acrylic is scary with out.

if your interested ill dig up some more info/pics after work.
