Yes thats the plan. Just your typical external overflow where you have the box mounted externally and a notch or slit cut into the tank to allow the water to flow into the overflow box.

Personally I don't like egg-crate and find it breaks easily and rots away faster over time egg-crate is a brittle plastic and just not my fave thing to work with

Thanks Lockrookie, PM sent!

This is the ghost overflow. I think it is a fantastic idea on only requires holes to be drilled instead of cutting out a section of glass.

Thats a really cool idea, too bad they don't make the external box itself taller. Also the cost itself is well above what it will cost for me to just notch or cut a slit in the glass. Thanks for the link
